Review comment:
       Adding   `BIG_DECIMAL(BigDecimal.class, Types.NUMERIC),` works.
   
   However, ColumnMetaData.Rep seems to be mapped to 
org.apache.calcite.avatica.proto.Common.Rep, so that would 
   change the wire representation, which may cause compatibility issues.
   
   I admit that I haven't traced through the whole stack, but there are 
multiple comments that we want to map everything to NUMBER, so it may not be 
desirable.
