User experience

What does the enhancement do?

Currently, when querying GreptimeDB through the MySQL CLI, timestamp rendering does not always respect the timestamp precision defined by the column schema. (Maybe pg cli also has this problem)

For example

create table

CREATE TABLE ts_precision_test (
    ts_s  TIMESTAMP(0),
    ts_ms TIMESTAMP(3),
    ts_us TIMESTAMP(6),
    ts_ns TIMESTAMP(9),
    v     INT32,
    TIME INDEX (ts_ms),
    PRIMARY KEY (v)
);

insert data

INSERT INTO ts_precision_test VALUES (
    '2026-06-02 03:50:00',
    '2026-06-02 03:50:00.195',
    '2026-06-02 03:50:00.195123',
    '2026-06-02 03:50:00.195123456',
    1
);

query data

SELECT * FROM ts_precision_test;

actual output

+---------------------+----------------------------+----------------------------+----------------------------+------+
| ts_s                | ts_ms                      | ts_us                      | ts_ns                      | v    |
