1. support read and write null in segcore
will store valid_data(use uint8_t type to save memory) in fieldData.
2. support load null
binlog reader read and write data into column(sealed segment),
insertRecord(growing segment). In sealed segment, store valid_data
directly. In growing segment, considering prior implementation and easy
code reading, it covert uint8_t to fbvector<bool>, which may optimize in
future.
3. retrieve valid_data.
parse valid_data in search/query.

This commit adds sparse float vector support to segcore with the
following:
1. data type enum declarations
2. Adds corresponding data structures for handling sparse float vectors
in various scenarios, including:
* FieldData as a bridge between the binlog and the in memory data
structures
* mmap::Column as the in memory representation of a sparse float vector
column of a sealed segment;
* ConcurrentVector as the in memory representation of a sparse float
vector of a growing segment which supports inserts.
3. Adds logic in payload reader/writer to serialize/deserialize from/to
binlog
4. Adds the ability to allow the index node to build sparse float vector
index
5. Adds the ability to allow the query node to build growing index for
growing segment and temp index for sealed segment without index built
This commit also includes some code cleanness, comment improvement, and
some unit tests for sparse vector.
