IMPALA-4828: Alter Kudu schema outside Impala may crash on read
Creating a table in Impala, changing the column schema
outside of Impala, and then reading again in Impala may
result in a crash. Impala may attempt to dereference
pointers that aren't there. This happens if a string column
is dropped and then a new, non string column is added with
the old string column's name.
The Kudu scan token contains the projection schema, and that
is validated when opening the Kudu scanner, but the issue is
that during planning, Impala assumes the types of columns
haven't changed when creating the scan tokens. This is fixed
by adding a check when creating the scan token, and failing
the query if the column types changed. Impala then relies on
the Kudu client to properly validate that the underlying
schema is still represented by the scan token, and that
deserialization will fail if it no longer matches. A test
case was added for this particular crash scenario, which now
fails during planning as expected. This does not attempt to
validate the Kudu client validation at deserialization time,
though that would be valuable coverage to add in the future.
Columns being removed don't produce a crash; the query fails
gracefully. A test was added for this case.
Columns being added should not affect this scenario, but a
test was added anyway.
