 Review comment:
   > 1. there is a performance issue, we still need to scan  the HLL or Bitmap 
column
   
   I think performance may not be very important in this case
   
   > 2. we need to support return binary content for HLL or Bitmap, so we 
shouldn't send null directly in ResultSink, we must pass a config from FE to BE.
   
   Maybe we can support this feature later, and wait until the situation is 
really needed? Or the user can get the encoded readable content through the hex 
or base64 function
