Vikash Talanki updated PHOENIX-3187:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently, Phoenix CHAR data type supports only single byte characters. We need 
support for multi byte characters in CHAR datatype.

Case 1: Support multi byte characters in CHAR data type like VARCHAR - CHAR(1) 
can take any multi-byte character.
Case 2: Support multi byte characters in CHAR data type only if it fits in 
defined length - CHAR(1) takes only single byte character but CHAR( n ) can 
take one n-byte character. In other words, the total number of bytes of all 
characters should not exceed the defined length.
