    Description

      I am unable to create a double-precision histogram. I know this is weird - it
      was mentioned at the optimizer call that double-precision histograms help,
      which implies that somebody succeeded in creating them, but I am unable to.

      I start the server and client like this, to have a clean environment

      ./mysql-test-run --start-and-exit
      mysql -uroot -A --socket=/data0/psergey/dev2/maria-10.0-mwl253/mysql-test/var/tmp/mysqld.1.sock

      Then I run:

      MariaDB [(none)]> set histogram_size=10;
      Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
       
      MariaDB [(none)]> set histogram_type='double_prec_hb';
      Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
       
      MariaDB [(none)]> show variables like 'histogram%';
      +----------------+----------------+
      | Variable_name  | Value          |
      +----------------+----------------+
      | histogram_size | 10             |
      | histogram_type | DOUBLE_PREC_HB |
      +----------------+----------------+
      2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
       
      MariaDB [(none)]> use test;
      Database changed
      MariaDB [test]> create table t21 ( a int);
      Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
       
      MariaDB [test]> insert into t21 values (1),(2),(3),(4),(5);
      Query OK, 5 rows affected (0.01 sec)
      Records: 5  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0
       
      MariaDB [test]> analyze table t21 persistent for all;
      +----------+---------+----------+----------+
      | Table    | Op      | Msg_type | Msg_text |
      +----------+---------+----------+----------+
      | test.t21 | analyze | status   | OK       |
      +----------+---------+----------+----------+
      1 row in set (0.00 sec)
       
      MariaDB [test]> select *, hex(histogram),length(histogram) from mysql.column_stats where db_name='test' and table_name='t21'\G
      *************************** 1. row ***************************
                db_name: test
             table_name: t21
            column_name: a
              min_value: 1
              max_value: 5
            nulls_ratio: 0.0000
             avg_length: 4.0000
          avg_frequency: 1.0000
              hist_size: 10
              hist_type: SINGLE_PREC_HB
              histogram:   �?�����
         hex(histogram): 0000FF3FFF7FFFBFFFFF
      length(histogram): 10
      1 row in set (0.00 sec)

      So, I've got a single-precision histogram. Note that hist_type column is set,
      unlike in MDEV-4357.
