I removed this test, though I still do not think that there is
something wrong with it.

In new commit-message you can see example (also in previous
letters), from which it can be seen, that second and third field
affects result of the CAST().

Fixed.

Subject: [PATCH] sql: add '\0' to the BLOB when it is cast to INTEGER

Prior to this patch, due to the absence of the '\0' character at
the end of the BLOB, it was possible to get an error or incorrect
result when using CAST() from BLOB to INTEGER or UNSIGNED. This
has now been fixed, but the maximum length of a BLOB that could be
cast to INTEGER or UNSIGNED was limited to 12287 bytes.

Examples of wrong CAST() from BLOB to INTEGER:

Error during CAST():
tarantool> box.execute("CREATE TABLE t1 (a VARBINARY PRIMARY KEY);")
---
- row_count: 1
...

tarantool> box.execute("INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (X'33'), (X'372020202020');")
---
- row_count: 2
...

tarantool> box.execute("SELECT a, CAST(a AS INTEGER) FROM t1;")
---
- null
- 'Type mismatch: can not convert varbinary to integer'
...

Wrong result:
tarantool> box.execute("CREATE TABLE t2 (a VARBINARY PRIMARY KEY, i INT, u INT);")
---
- row_count: 1
...

tarantool> box.execute("INSERT INTO t2 VALUES (X'33', 0x33, 0x00);")
---
- row_count: 1
...

tarantool> box.execute("SELECT a, CAST(a AS INTEGER) FROM t2;")
---
- metadata:
  - name: A
    type: varbinary
  - name: CAST(a AS INTEGER)
    type: integer
  rows:
  - ['3', 33]
...

Closes #4766
