Adding support for MAP types in the select list.
An example of how maps are printed:
{"k1":2,"k2":null}
Nested collection types (maps and arrays) are supported in any
combination. However, structs in collections and collections in structs
are not supported.
Limitations (other than map support) as described in the commit for
IMPALA-9498 still apply, the following are to be implemented later:
- Unify HS2 / Beeswax logic with the way STRUCTs are handled.
This could be done in a "final" logic that can handle
STRUCTS/ARRAYS nested to each other
- Implement "deep copy" and "deep serialize" for collections in BE.
This would enable all operators, e.g. ORDER BY and UNION.
Testing:
- modified the FE tests that checked that maps were not allowed in the
select list - now the test expect maps are allowed there
- added FE and EE tests involving maps based on the array tests
