LOB: use general memory buffers for storing LOB data about openlogreplicator

This feature is complicated to implement.. If there is a demand from users more focus could be given here.

The lack of memory buffer usage for LOB data allocation, relying instead on the heap pool, significantly affects the management of large data loads. This method leads to uncontrolled memory usage increases and lacks transparency in memory consumption metrics. Introducing memory buffers for LOB data would allow for better resource management, crucial for high-volume data environments.

Alternatively, capturing LOB data directly from the source database using a control connection could be explored, but this might be more complex and suitable as a separate feature.

Given the importance of efficient large data load management, prioritizing memory management improvements for LOBs is essential. This would greatly enhance system performance and scalability.

So far this not an issue for any of OpenLogReplicator users that I am aware of. Thus the priority is low.
