* TEXT and BLOB now have separate identifiers internally
* TEXT columns are identified as such in system catalog
* cpimport only requires hex input for BLOB, not TEXT
This patch adds enough support so that cross engines joins with blob
columns in the foreign engines will work. The modifications are as
follows:
* Add CrossEngine support for non-NULL-terminated (binary) data
* Add row data support for blobs (similar to varbinary)
* Add engine support for writing out blob data correctly to the storage
engine API
* Re-enable blob support in the engine plugin
This does the following:
* Switch resource manager to a singleton which reduces the amount of
times the XML data is scanned and objects allocated.
* Make the I_S tables use the FE implementation of the system catalog
* Make the I_S.columnstore_columns table use the RID list cache
* Make the extentmap pre-allocate a vector instead of many small allocs
This patch does the following:
* Fix a year storage issue in the datestamp for the columnstore tables
metadata table (note that any previous tables will still have the
incorrect year stored).
* Expose the table creation date in CalpontSystemCatalog::getTables()
* Add an INFORMATION_SCHEMA table listing the tables in ColumnStore
(similar to systable)
* Add an INFORMATION_SCHEMA table listing the columns in ColumnStore
(similar to syscolumn)
* Add an INFORMATION_SCHEMA table listing the extents in ColumnStore
(similar to the editem tool but with additional file information)
* Modifies the build system and scripts to support the new tables
