Current design : As per the current design IS NULL and IS NOT NULL filter is been handled by spark layer
Drawback : Block/Blocklet level pruning will not be possible if the filter is been processed by spark layer
Proposed Improvement: IS NULL and IS NOT NULL shall be push down to carbon layer since carbon layer can process these filters faster using block/block-let pruning , also while processing filters in executers carbon is applying binary search for applying filter values.
UT/FT Testcases : Existing testcases can verify the impact of this PR change since its not new usecase/scenario.
