Hive may truncate bitmaps in some cases #16

See:

In order to deal with this in user code depending on libhs2client, we'll need to add the length of the null bitmap string to the hs2client::Column class

I dug around in the Hive source a bit to try to figure out where this might be happening. We can punt on it for now, but it might be good to expose the bitmap length for safety
