   @kishoreg Without this PR, in order to create default columns for serialized Object such as HyperLogLog, TDigest etc., user needs to serialize the default Object (empty HyperLogLog or TDigest) in order to get the default value and then put it into the schema. The default values are quite long for these Objects (HyperLogLog: "00000008000000ac00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"; QDigest: "3fa999999999999a0000000000000000000000000004b9467fffffffffffffff800000000000000000000000"; TDigest: "000000017ff0000000000000fff0000000000000405900000000000000000000").
   With this PR, we directly treat empty byte array as null, so user doesn't need to specify such default values.
