Description:
I've been trying to use a BIT field with NdbScanFilter, but it always makes the one of
the nodes segfault bringing down all nodes. This is because NDB API has no support for
BIT fields yet, but it should not crash data nodes.

How to repeat:
Source attached to reproduce.

Suggested fix:
Handle the error better, eg. say it is not supported or make NdbScanFilter work with BIT
fields.
