+ * This class adds the constant support to ColumnVector.
+ * It supports all the types and contains put APIs,
+ * which will put the exact same value to all rows.
+ *
+ * Capacity: The vector only stores one copy of the data, and acts as an 
unbounded vector
+ * (get from any row will return the same value)

Review comment:
       I was thinking to extend `WritableColumnVector` initially, but seems 
like we needs to implement some unnecessary public methods like: 
`putLongs(rowId, count, value)`
