Thanks for contributing.

Description

avoids copying of text columns to stringColumns to use the original slice approach. In the new approach the bytes produced by each row in the text column are used.

Testing

Did you add a unit test? No. There is already a test

… when slices are converted back to tables. (#984)"

This reverts commit 8d07c4a.
The original handling approach (converting them to string column) causes problems, including possibly exploding memory requirements. The new approach works directly with text columns when used to split a table, while retaining the old handling when using other column types, as it is more efficient.
