>  Many vector expression classes are setting noNulls to true which does not 
> work if the VRB is a scratch column being reused. The previous use may have 
> set noNulls to false and the isNull array will have some rows marked as NULL. 
> The result is wrong query results and sometimes NPEs (for BytesColumnVector).
> So, many vector expressions need this:
> {code:java}
>       // Carefully handle NULLs...
>       /*
>        * For better performance on LONG/DOUBLE we don't want the conditional
>        * statements inside the for loop.
>        */
>       outputColVector.noNulls = false;
>  {code}
> And, vector expressions need to make sure the isNull array entry is set when 
> outputColVector.noNulls is false.
> And, all place that assign column value need to set noNulls to false when the 
> value is NULL.
> Almost all cases where noNulls is set to true are incorrect.
