All CHAR children of a CASE expression were automaticallally implicitly cast to STRING. This commit removes this behavior for the THEN clause of a CASE statement, i.e., if all THEN exprs of a CASE expression are CHAR, then the type of the CASE expression will be CHAR.

Welcome to Impala
Lightning-fast, distributed SQL queries for petabytes of data stored in Apache Hadoop clusters.
Impala is a modern, massively-distributed, massively-parallel, C++ query engine that lets you analyze, transform and combine data from a variety of data sources:
- Best of breed performance and scalability.
- Support for data stored in HDFS, Apache HBase and Amazon S3.
- Wide analytic SQL support, including window functions and subqueries.
- On-the-fly code generation using LLVM to generate CPU-efficient code tailored specifically to each individual query.
- Support for the most commonly-used Hadoop file formats, including the Apache Parquet (incubating) project.
- Apache-licensed, 100% open source.

Building Impala
This Apache Incubator repository is currently not buildable but has the complete source code for Impala minus some third-party dependences. See https://github.com/cloudera/Impala for the buildable Impala source and https://issues.cloudera.org/browse/IMPALA-3223 to track progress on making this repository buildable.
