Hello Gabor Kaszab, Zoltan Borok-Nagy, Attila Jeges, Tim Armstrong, Impala 
Public Jenkins,

I'd like you to reexamine a change. Please visit

to look at the new patch set (#3).

Change subject: WIP IMPALA-9482 Support for BINARY columns
......................................................................

WIP IMPALA-9482 Support for BINARY columns

This patch adds support for BINARY columns for all table formats with
the exception of Kudu.

The reason for the WIP status is that:
- I plan to add more tests, mainly in FE.
- No successful exhaustive test run yet.
- There are a few differences compared to Hive:
  - In INSERT ... VALUES () string literals need to be explicitly
    cast to BINARY, while this is not needed in Hive.
  - UDF/UDAFs that expect STRING argument accept BINARY too, while in
    Hive explicit cast is needed in this case.
  - Hive doesn't calculate NDV during COMPUTE STATISTICS for BINARY
    columns. Impala still calculates it but  throws away the results.

I think that review of most parts can start in this state, so it makes
sense to upload it without the missing pieces.

In Hive the main difference between STRING and BINARY is that STRING is
assumed to be UTF8 encoded, while BINARY can be any byte array.
Some other differences in Hive:
- BINARY can be only cast from/to STRING
- Only a small subset of built-in STRING functions support BINARY.
- In several file formats (e.g. text) BINARY is base64 encoded.
- No NDV is calculated during COMPUTE STATISTICS.

As Impala doesn't treat STRINGs as UTF8, BINARY and STRING become nearly
identical, especially from the backend's perspective. For this reason,
BINARY is implemented a bit differently compared to other types:
while the frontend treats STRING and BINARY as two separate types, most
of the backend uses PrimitiveType::TYPE_STRING for BINARY too, e.g.
in SlotDesc. Only the following parts of backend need to differentiate
between STRING and BINARY:
- table scanners
- table writers
- HS2/Beeswax service
These parts have access to column metadata, which allows to add special
handling for BINARY.

Testing:
- Added functional.binary_tbl for all file formats (except Kudu)
  to test scanning.
- Removed functional.unsupported_types and related tests, as now
  Impala supports all (non-complex) types that Hive does.
- Added a basic coverage in FE/EE tests, will continue adding new
  ones while the patch is in WIP state.
- Ran core tests.
