Fix bug 1194969 - The alter table with a group index apparently not affected by the alter was causing the alter to fail due to differences in the row data between old and new falsly claiming the index rows needed to be udpated.
Find another case for alter to break the "rowdefs are same" assumption. Add new test for that as well.
Fix the text to work correctly in the FTS with the newtypes always enabled.
Address the "CURRENT_USER" default being different between FTS and ITs
Remove unused ServiceManager from helper methods
Unused crash parameter
Import cleanup
Unused method
De-generify to fix warning
Explicit check and SafeVararg annotation
