### Bug Description
**What happened:**
when querying a hudi table with a complex data column, like array/map with
incremental cdc, the resulted after row is having some encoded value for the
complex field.
for example. I have a column name policy_types which is an array of string.
When running cdc query on the table its returning the below json. You can see
policy_types is some kind of encoded object.
**What you expected:**
The actual value for this field.
for example: list of strings
**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Create a table with a column type as array of string
2. Insert few records
3. Run incremental CDC query to fetch before/after record.
4. You will find the after to contain encoded value for array type column.
