/*
  An equi-height histogram which stores real values for bucket bounds.

  Handles @@histogram_type=JSON_HB

  Histogram format in JSON:

  {
    // The next three are saved but not currently analyzed:
    "target_histogram_size": nnn,
    "collected_at": "(date and time)",
    "collected_by": "(server version)",

    "histogram_hb": [
      { "start": "value", "size":nnn.nn, "ndv": nnn },
      ...

      // Optionally, start and/or end can be replaced with _hex variant
      { "start_hex: "value", "size":nnn.nn, "ndv":nnn},

      ...
      { "start": "value", "size":nnn.nn, "ndv": nnn, "end": "value"},
    ]
  }

  Histogram is a JSON object. It has some global properties and "histogram_hb"
  member whose value is a JSON array of histogram buckets.

  Each bucket is an object with these members:
    "start" - the first value in the bucket.
    "size"  - fraction of table rows that is contained in the bucket.
    "ndv"   - Number of Distinct Values in the bucket.
    "end"   - Optionally, the last value in the bucket.

  A bucket is a single-point bucket if it has ndv=1.

  Most buckets have no "end" member: the bucket is assumed to contain all
  values up to the "start" of the next bucket.

  The exception is single-point buckets where last value is the same as the
  first value.

  start/end can be replaced with start_hex/end_hex. In _hex variant, the
  constant is encoded in hex. This encoding is used to handle so called 
  "unassigned characters": some non-UTF8 charsets have byte combinations that
  are not mapped to any UTF8 character.
