------------------------------------

             Summary: Change DataType from enum to class
                 Key: CARBONDATA-1539
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CARBONDATA-1539
             Project: CarbonData
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jacky Li
             Fix For: 1.3.0


DataType should be java class instead of enum, it enables data type object to hold more information for decimal and complex type. This is required so that:
1. ColumnPage does not need to store extra information for decimal and complex type. It can process for all datatype in unified way.
2. It is needed to decouple carbon core and spark, so core does not depend on spark.
