             Summary: Create binary_string() function to convert encoded binary 
string to sequence of bytes
                 Key: DRILL-476
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-476
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Aditya Kishore
            Assignee: Aditya Kishore


Need a function to convert an encoded binary string to its byte array 
equivalent. All non printable bytes can be encoded as '\xNN' where NN is the 
byte value in hexadecimal.

Sample:
{noformat}
binary_string('\xca\xfe\xba\xbe') => (byte[]) {(byte)0xca, (byte)0xfe, 
(byte)0xba, (byte)0xbe}
{noformat}
