MDEV-18627 Wrong result after instant size change of integer

If we instantly change the size of a fixed-length field
and treat it as kind-of variable-length, then we will need
conversions between old column values and new ones.

I tried adding such a conversion to row_build(), but then I
noticed that more conversions would be needed, because
old values still appeared in a freshly rebuilt secondary index,
causing a mismatch when trying to search with the correct
longer value that was converted in my provisional fix to row_build().

So, we will revert the essential part of
MDEV-15563: Instant ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT column extension
(commit 22feb179ae), but not
remove any tests.
