ScyllaDB does not distinguish empty collections from nulls. That is, INSERTing an empty collection is equivalent to nullifying the corresponding column.
As pointed out in #1001, it's a nice QoL feature to be able to deserialize empty CQL collections to empty Rust collections instead of
None::<RustCollection>
. A test is added that checks that.NOTICE
The test fails with the current deserialization framework implementation. It should work, however, once the new deserialization framework is introduced and the test is migrated to use it.
The goal of this PR at this point is to showcase what is the desired behaviour and remind that it has not yet been reached.
