This pull request is an implementation of vector data type similar to one used by Apache Cassandra.
The patch contains:
- implementation of vector_type_impl class
- necessary functionalities similar to other data types
- support for serialization and deserialization of vectors
- support for Lua and JSON format
- valid CQL syntax for `vector<>` type
- `type_parser` support for vectors
- expression adjustments such as:
- add `collection_constructor::style_type::vector`
- rename `collection_constructor::style_type::list` to `collection_constructor::style_type::list_or_vector`
- vector type encoding (for drivers)
- unit tests
- cassandra compatibility tests
- necessary documentation

If you can use an existing folder, consider adding your test to it. New folders should be used for new large categories/subsystems, or when the test environment is significantly different from some existing suite, e.g. you plan to start scylladb with different configuration, and you intend to add many tests and would like them to reuse an existing Scylla cluster (clusters can be reused for tests within the same folder).
To add a new folder, create a new directory, and then
copy & edit its suite.ini.
