--------------------------------------

             Summary: CONVERT_TO_JSON function is failed while using non-existence field as a parameter.
                 Key: DRILL-5757
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5757
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Execution - Data Types
    Affects Versions: 1.11.0
            Reporter: Vitalii Diravka
            Assignee: Vitalii Diravka
             Fix For: 1.12.0


Using of non-existence field as parameter (or field with null values across a whole batch) of CONVERT_TO_JSON function leads to failure.

simple.json
{code}
{"id": 0}
{code}
{code}
0: jdbc:drill:zk=local> select `id`, convert_to(`complex_field`, 'JSON') from dfs.`/tmp/simple.json`;
Error: SYSTEM ERROR: UnsupportedOperationException: Unable to get holder type for minor type [LATE] and mode [OPTIONAL]

[Error Id: a13a1ed0-f8fe-4d4a-ba35-ab17c3a2f171 on vitalii-pc:31010] (state=,code=0)
{code}

The root cause of the issue and fix:
If there isn't a particular vector for the field, "NullExpression" is created as an argument for the Drill function. That argument can be replaced later in "ExpressionTreeMaterializer.visitFunctionCall()" with "TypedNullConstant" logical expression, but LATE type shouldn't be used for this case, the data type of the field is still unknown.
