    I think this PR doesn't have a good abstraction of the problem. For table 
cache, our goal is not making the comressed data a `ColumnVector`, but having 
an efficient way to convert the compressed data(byte array) to `ColumnVector`. 
I think the most efficient way is to not do conversion at all, but having a 
wrapper, i.e. having a `class CachedBatchColumnVector(data: Array[Byte])`, 
which implements various `getXXX` methods by doing decompression. Then we don't 
need to introduce the `VectorType` concept and change `ColumnVector`.
    
    @kiszk what do you think?
