Description

The version of the Python driver that is used by cqlsh (3.25.0) doesn't entirely support the new vector data type introduced by CASSANDRA-18504. While we can perfectly write data, read vectors are presented as blobs:

> CREATE TABLE t (k int PRIMARY KEY, v vector<int, 2>);
> INSERT INTO t(k, v) VALUES (0, [1, 2]);
> SELECT * FROM t;

 k | v
---+-------------------------------------
 0 | b'\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x02'

I think that would we fixed if we update the driver to (at least) 3.28.0, which includes support for the new vector data type.
