Drops some inline callouts that snuck into 7.x. We're doings this in
preparation for switching the elasticsearch reference to asciidoctor
which doesn't support them.
Implement a more trivial case of the CASE expression which is
expressed as a traditional function with 2 or 3 arguments. e.g.:
IIF(a = 1, 'one', 'many')
IIF(a > 0, 'positive')

Implement the ANSI SQL CASE expression which provides the if/else
functionality common to most programming languages.
The CASE expression can have multiple WHEN branches and becomes a
powerful tool for SQL queries as it can be used in SELECT, WHERE,
GROUP BY, HAVING and ORDER BY clauses.

* Document MATCH and QUERY function predicates.
* Polish the functions pages and add a list of functions to the main Functions & Operators page.

To avoid having to specify each spec by hand (which can miss specs to be
added), the test infrastructure now performs classpath discovery so that
each spec added, is automatically considered.

(cherry picked from commit d0f60b4425c731509aa8ca765d55f563f866ef90)
* Added Limitations page
* Made the aggregations page follow the common template for functions
* Modified all tables to have the first row's cells content centered
* Polishing in other various sections
Add GREATEST(expr1, expr2, ... exprN) and LEAST(expr1, expr2, exprN)
functions which are in the family of CONDITIONAL functions.
Implementation follows PostgreSQL behaviour, so the functions return
`NULL` when all of their arguments evaluate to `NULL`.
Renamed `CoalescePipe` and `CoalesceProcessor` to `ConditionalPipe` and
`ConditionalProcessor` respectively, to be able to reuse them for
`Greatest` and `Least` evaluations. To achieve that `ConditionalOperation`
has been added to differentiate between the functionalities at execution
time.
Closes: #35878
