Subject: [PATCH v13 3/3] Fix behaviour for Virtual Generated columns

Currently during tablesync Virtual generated columns are also
replicated. Also during decoding a 'null' value appears for virtual
generated column. We are not supporting replication of virtual generated
columns for now. This patch fixes the behaviour for the same.

This patch has a dependency on Virtual Generated Columns
