[SPARK-26001][SQL]Reduce memory copy when writing decimal
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
this PR fix 2 here:
- when writing non-null decimals, we not zero-out all the 16 allocated
bytes. if the number of bytes needed for a decimal is greater than 8. then we
not need zero-out between 0-byte and 8-byte. The first 8-byte will be covered
when writing decimal.
- when writing null decimals, we not zero-out all the 16 allocated bytes.
BitSetMethods.set the label for null and the length of decimal to 0. when we
get the decimal, will not access the 16 byte memory value, so this is safe.
## How was this patch tested?
the existed test cases.
