 Description   

We need to document that only latin1 and utf8 are supported. Character sets such as utf8mb4 will cause undefined behaviour on things such as INSERT...SELECT and functions requiring data length.

Places to consider documenting this:

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/columnstore-create-table/
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/columnstore-data-types/
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/mariadb-columnstore-system-usage/ (UTF8 section)

GeoffMontee Please pick this up as part of X5 closeout. Things have changed with 1.5, and this is a good time to capture historical vs current state.
