MDEV-21088 Table cannot be loaded after instant ADD/DROP COLUMN

In MariaDB Server 10.4, btr_cur_instant_init_low() assumes that
all PRIMARY KEY columns that are internally variable-length will
be encoded in 0 bytes in the metadata record. Sometimes, CHAR
columns can be encoded as variable-length. We should not
unnecessarily reserve space for a dummy string value in the
metadata record.
