* 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
* DML writes for multi-block dictionary (blob) now works
* PrimProc fixed so that the first block in multi-block is read
correctly
* Performance optimisation (removed string copy into stack) for new
dictionary entries
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
Date limit of year 1400 was used due to Boost's limits.
This patch strips out the use of Boost for date handling and sets the
lower limit to year 1000.
