Query
{code:sql}
SELECT CONVERT_FROM(columns[1], 'JSON') as col1 FROM dfs.`file1.tbl`;
{code}
where file1.tbl is a file with single column returns error
{noformat}
Error: SYSTEM ERROR: NullPointerException

{noformat}
It should return single row with null value since CONVERT_FROM is executed on the column that does not exists.
*Problem description*
convert_fromJSON function considers only non-nullable VarCharHolder, but for this case we receives NullableVarCharHolder which has null value. So convert_fromJSON function that takes NullableVarCharHolder as an input parameter should be added.
