Preserve supported string options through shared import/export policies (spec v0.103.0). Reject undeclared preferences. Defer INITCAP charset handling until ASCII_ONLY is defined.

Partially addresses #1173.

BREAKING CHANGE: Unsupported preferences, including INITCAP charsets, fail import. Explicit export options may require consumers to reject the invocation.

SQL CONCAT and || now emit null_handling ACCEPT_NULLS for the standard
Substrait concat function. Import accepts that behavior, including as a
fallback preference, instead of silently discarding options.

BREAKING CHANGE: Standard concat calls with null_handling preferences that do not include ACCEPT_NULLS, unknown options, or empty preference lists are rejected. Include ACCEPT_NULLS only when null propagation is acceptable.
Use one option policy for the standard concat, like, replace, starts_with,
ends_with, strpos, substring, lower, upper and initcap mappings. Export the
behavior implemented by the Calcite operator and reject import preferences
that do not permit it. Other extensions and unmapped option policies are
unchanged.

BREAKING CHANGE: The covered standard string functions reject unknown options, empty preferences and preferences that do not include the mapped Calcite behavior. Allow that behavior only when it is acceptable for the query.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • String-function options are preserved when converting between SQL and Substrait, including supported settings for case sensitivity, character handling, and null handling.
    • Supported preferences are applied during conversion, and options are retained when expressions are converted back to SQL.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Scalar function operators are resolved using the complete invocation, improving conversion for functions with alternate signatures.
    • Unsupported or incompatible string-function options are rejected, with validation of option names and values.

Walkthrough

Scalar function conversion now exports mapped options for supported string functions. Rex conversion resolves operators using the full Substrait invocation and applies option policies. Tests cover option export, round-trips, evaluation, and rejection of incompatible options.

The import refusals here are right: the spec says a consumer must reject a plan when it supports none of the listed preferences. Before this merges, please agree one shared seam for option handling across the #1173 PRs. Right now #1392–#1395 each add a different public getSqlOperatorFromSubstraitFunc(ScalarFunctionInvocation) overload and this PR adds validateOptions, and all five rewrite the same .options(...) line in generateBinding. Whichever merges first sets the public API the others have to rebase onto.
