IMPALA-11520: Remove functional.unsupported_types misc test
IMPALA-9482 added support to the remaining Hive types and removed the
functional.unsupported_types table. There was a reference remaining in a
misc test. test_misc is not marked as exhaustive but it only runs in
exhaustive builds.

>
> Hive's binary data types seem very similar to strings with some exceptions:
> - no implicit/explicit cast to any type except string
> - bit different built-in functions than for string, but some functions accept
> both string and binary (e.g. concat)
> - written to text files with base64 encoding
> (see https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+UDF )
> I didn't look around about client support yet.
