MDEV-21580: Allow packed sort keys in sort bufferbb-10.5-mdev6915-ext
This task deals with packing the sort key inside the sort buffer, which would lead to efficient usage of the memory allocated for the sort buffer. The changes brought by this feature are 1) Sort buffers would have sort keys of variable length 2) The format for sort keys inside the sort buffer would look like |<sort_length><null_byte><key_part1><null_byte><key_part2>.......| sort_length is the extra bytes that are required to store the variable length of a sort key. 3) When packing of sort key is done we store the ORIGINAL VALUES inside the sort buffer and not the STRXFRM form (mem-comparable sort keys). 4) Special comparison function packed_keys_comparison() is introduced to compare 2 sort keys.
