Type Conversion Issues with Mismatched Buffer Table Structures

Type conversion when the structure of a Buffer type table does not match the structure of the destination table. Vitaly Baranov
Adds type conversion support when the structure of a Buffer table does not match the structure of the destination table.

Why it matters

This feature addresses the issue where Buffer tables with differing column types than the destination tables could not be properly flushed. It enables automatic type conversion during flushing, ensuring data consistency and smoother data pipeline operations.

How to use it

Users do not need to perform any special configuration. When a Buffer table flushes data to a destination table with mismatched types, automatic type conversion will be applied if possible.
