> If we load bytes from BinStorage, we don't actually know how we get these 
> bytes originally, and we will not have a way to cast those bytes. Ideally we 
> shall encode caster into BinStorage data file, but we are not there yet. 
> Currrently bytesToXXX methods for BinStorage is wrong and it results 
> unexpected errors. Eg.
> {code}
> a = load '1.txt' as (a0, a1, a2);
> store a into '1.bin' as BinStorage();
> a = load '1.bin' using BinStorage as (a0, a1, a2);
> b = foreach a generate (long)a0;
> dump b;
> {code}
> The code will run but produce wrong data. It's less confusing if we throw an 
> exception in this case.
> Release Notes:
> Pig will throw exception in the case we want to convert bytes loading from 
> BinStorage
