Previously, CopyStringVal() mistakenly copies a null
StringVal as an empty string (i.e. a non-null string
with zero length). This change fixes the problem by
distinguishing between these two cases in CopyStringVal()
and handles them properly. Also added a test case for it.
This problem only started showing up recently due to
commit 51268c053f which
calls CopyStringVal() in OffsetFnInit(). All other
pre-existing callers of CopyStringVal() before that
commit checks if 'src' is null before calling it so
the problem never showed up. In that sense, this is
a latent bug exposed by the aforementioned commit.

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.
