Previously, parsing an arithmetic expression with `*` and no spaces,
e.g.: `2*i` threw a parsing exception as the grammar rule for
tableIdentifier was clashing with the rule for arithmetic operator `*`.
This issue comes already in the lexer and the left part of the
expression (in our example `2*`) was recognised as a
TABLE_IDENTIFIER token.
The solution adopted is to allow the `*` wildcard in the table name
only if it's surrounded with double quotes, e.g.: `"my*index"`
Closes: #33957
Split function section into multiple chapters
Add String functions
Add (small) section on Conversion/Cast functions
Add missing aggregation functions
Enable documentation testing (was disabled by accident). While at it,
fix failing tests
Improve spec tests to allow multi-line queries (useful for docs)
Add ability to ignore a spec test (name should end with -Ignore)
Extend SHOW TABLES, DESCRIBE and SHOW COLUMNS to support table
identifiers not just SQL LIKE pattern.
This allows both Elasticsearch-style multi-index patterns and SQL LIKE.
To disambiguate between the two (as the " vs ' can be easy to miss),
the grammar now requires LIKE keyword as a prefix for all LIKE-like
patterns.
Also added some docs comparing the two types of patterns.
Fix#33294
For historical reasons SQL restricts GROUP BY to only one field.
This commit removes the restriction and improves the test suite with
multi group by tests.
Close#31793
Significantly improve the example snippets in the documentation.
The examples are part of the test suite and checked nightly.
To help readability, the existing dataset was extended (test_emp renamed
to emp plus library).
Improve output of JDBC tests to be consistent with the CLI
Add lenient flag to JDBC asserts to allow type widening (a long is
equivalent to a integer as long as the value is the same).
