BUG#30324: Grouping queries with COUNT(DISTINCT bit column) return wrong results

- The bug was caused by COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code using Unique object in 
  a way that assumed that BIT(N) column occupies a contiguous space in
  temp_table->record[0] buffer. 
- The fix is to make COUNT(DISTINCT ...) code instruct create_tmp_table to
  create temporary table with column of type BIGINT, not BIT(N).
