Backport 1/1 commits from #134407 on behalf of @spilchen.
/cc @cockroachdb/release
A recent fix enabled support for BIT(0) columns (see issue #132944), which has since been backported. However, since this backport hasn’t been released yet, running against an older down-level client may still trigger a syntax error. This change adds a temporary check to handle such errors until the backports for #132944 are publicly released.
This adjustment will be backported to older branches, with slight variations per release:
Epic: None
Release note: None
