as per https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3724 and subsequently https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3657. It is allowed behavior to have less items in a composite column than the composite type specifies.

for example, given a column with type CompositeType(UUIDType,UTF8Type), a column specifying only the uuid portion is considered valid. This would serialize to where eof is the last byte of the first composite portion.
