With the debug mode enabled, one failing test of #713 was in
convertTo.It likely didn't cause any user issues, but it could prevent #712, so best to solve it.
It was a relatively small fix. I renamed
createEmptyColumntocreateNullFilledColumnas that better reflects is behavior. Then, instead of creating the erroneous column, it throws an exception. This eliminates the need for the large boolean check in theconvertToImplfunction. Finally, sinceupdatecannot target non-existing columns, I needed to update thefilloption ofconvertTo, toupdateoraddcolumns depending on whether they were there already or not.
