Description
**Describe the bug**
We should cast GRAPHIC and VARGRAPHIC values to VARCHAR before concatenating them because we get different results from `--hash`.
For example:
```
$ db2 "select col_graphic,hash(col_graphic),hash(cast(col_graphic as varchar(10))) from
pso_data_validator.dvt_db2_types;"
COL_GRAPHIC 2 3
