Description
### Preconditions
1. Magento 1.9.4.2 to 2.4.1
2. Migration data tool 2.4.1
### Steps to reproduce
1. Create a required multi select attribute in Magento 1 and create products using this attribute.
2. Perform a single data migration.
3. Add more products in Magento 1 and fill this attribute.
4. Perform a delta migration
### Expected result
1. The new values are migrated
### Actual result
1. The new products are created but the value is not set for the multiselect attribute
### Additional notes
While trying to understand why the products didn't have the values I noticed that during the data migration step the values are correctly transferred from the `catalog_product_entity_text` to `catalog_product_entity_varchar` table however this is not hapepning in the delta migration.
On my install, the data for this attribute during the delta migration is filled on `catalog_product_entity_text` table by mistake.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by tracing the delta migration handling for multiselect product attributes and compare its writes to catalog_product_entity_text and catalog_product_entity_varchar; reproduce the migration described in the issue. Done means newly added products retain their multiselect values after delta migration, with values in the expected table.
