             Summary: Fix issues with fillEmpties, offset vectors
                 Key: DRILL-7441
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-7441
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Paul Rogers
            Assignee: Paul Rogers


Enable the vector validator with full testing of offset vectors. A number of 
operators trigger errors. Tracking down the issues, and adding detailed tests, 
it turns out that:

* Drill has an informal standard that zero-length batches should have 
zero-length offset vectors, while a batch of size 1 will have offset vectors of 
size 2. Thus, zero-length is a special case.
* Nullable, repeated and variable-width vectors have "fill empties" logic that 
is used in two places: when setting the value count and when preparing to write 
a new value. The current logic is not quite right for either case.

Detailed vector checks fail due to inconsistencies in how the above works. This 
PR fixes those issues.
