Subject: [PATCH] [1.11.x] Fixed #27924 -- Added support for cx_Oracle 5.3.

- Fixed Oracle backend due to cx_Oracle 5.3 change in the
Cursor.description behavior i.e. "Use None instead of 0 for items in
the Cursor.description attribute that do not have any validity.".
- Used cx_Oracle.Object.size() instead of len().
Thanks Tim Graham for the review.

Backport of 75503a823f6358892fff5aeb3691683ad9cc5a60 from master
