Add a function, which given an expression and a column,
extracts all restrictions involving this column.

The combination of the new types and these functions cannot happen yet,
but as they are generic functions it is better to implement them in
case it becomes possible later.
Now that all selectable::raw subclasses have been converted to
cql3::selectable::with_expression::raw, the class structure is
just a wrapper around expressions. Peel it, converting the
virtual member functions to free functions, and replacing
object instances with expression or nested_expression as the
case allows.
Add a field_selection variant element to expression. Like function_call
and cast, the structure from which a field is selectewd cannot yet be
an expression, since not all seletable::raw:s are converted. This will
be done in a later pass. This is also why printing a field selection now
does not print the selected expression; this will also be corrected later.
Add a cast variant element to expression. Like function_call, the
argument being converted cannot yet be an expression, since not
all seletable::raw:s are converted. This will be done in a later
pass. This is also why printing a cast now does not print the
casted expression; this will also be corrected later.
Rather than creating a new variant element in expression, we extend
function_call to handle both named and anonymous functions, since
most of the processing is the same.
Add a function_call variant element to hold function calls. Note
that because not all selectables are yet converted, function call
arguments are still of type selectable::raw. They will be converted
to expressions later. This is also why printing a function now
does not print its arguments; this will also be corrected later.
Create a new element in the expression variant, column_mutation_attribute,
signifying we're picking up an attribute of a column mutation (not a
column value!). We use an enum rather than a bool to choose between
writetime and ttl (the two mutation attributes) for increased
explicitness.
Although there can only be one type for the column we're operating
on (it must be an unresolved_identifer), we use a nested_expression.
This is because we'll later need to also support a column_value
as the column type after we prepare it. This is somewhat similar
to the address of operator in C, which syntactically takes any
expression but semantically operates only on lvalues.
It is convenient to initialize a nested_expression variable from
one of the types that compose the expression variant, but C++ doesn't
allow it. Add a constructor that does this. Use the new variant_element
concept to constrain the input to be one of the variant's elements.
The exression type cannot be a member of a struct that is an
element of the expression variant. This is because it would then
be required to contain itself. So introduce a nested_expression
type to indirectly hold an expression, but keep the value semantics
we expect from expressions: it is copyable and a copy has separate
identity and storage.
In fact binary_operator had to resort to this trick, so it's converted
to nested_expression in the next patch.
Introduce unresolved_identifer as an unprepared counterpart to column_value.
column_identifier_raw no longer inherits from selectable::raw, but
methods for now to reduce churn.
Adds replace_token function which takes an expression
and replaces all left hand side occurences of token()
with the given column definition.

Currently, column names can only appear in a boolean binary expression,
but not on their own. This means that in the statement
SELECT a FROM tab WHERE a > 3;
We can represent the WHERE clause as an expression, but not the selector.
To pave the way for using expressions in selector contexts, we promote
the elements of binary_operator::lhs (column_value, column_value_tuple,
token) to be expressions in their own right. binary_operator::lhs
becomes an expression (wrapped in unique_ptr, because variants can't
contain themselves).
Note that all three new possibilities make sense in a selector:
SELECT column FROM tab
SELECT token(pk) FROM tab
SELECT function_that_accepts_a_tuple((col1, col2)) FROM tab
There is some fallout from this:
- because binary_operator contains a unique_ptr, it is no longer
copyable. We add a copy constructor and assignment operator to
compensate.
- often, the new elements don't make sense when evaluating a boolean
expression, which is the only context we had before. We call
on_internal_error in these cases. The parser right now prevents such
cases from being constructed in the first place (this is equivalent to
if (some_struct_value) in C).
- in statement_restrictions.cc, we need to evalute the lhs in the context
of the full binary operator. I introduced with_current_binary_operator()
for this; an alternative approach is to create a new sub-visitor.
Closes#8797
Right now, binary_operator::lhs is a variant<column_value,
std::vector<column_value>, token>. The role of the second branch
(a vector of column values) is to represent a tuple of columns
e.g. "WHERE (a, b, c) = ?"), but this is not clear from the type
name.
Inroduce a wrapper type around the vector, column_value_tuple, to
make it clear we're dealing with tuples of CQL references (a
column_value is really a column_ref, since it doesn't actually
contain any value).
Closes#8208
Make to_range able to handle rvalues. We will pass managed_bytes&& to it
in the next patch to avoid pointless copying.
The public declaration of to_range is changed to a concrete function to avoid
having to explicitly instantiate to_range for all possible reference types of
clustering_key_prefix.
This patch switches the type used to store collection elements inside the
intermediate form used in lists::value, tuples::value etc. from bytes
to managed_bytes. After this patch, tuple and list elements are only linearized
in from_serialized, which will be corrected soon.
This commit introduces some additional copies in expression.cc, which
will be dealt with in a future commit.
Omitting these operators didn't cause bugs, because needs_filtering()
is never invoked on them. But that will likely change in the future,
so add them now to prevent problems down the road.

Instead of defining this enum in multi_column_restriction::slice, put
it in the expr namespace and add it to binary_operator. We will need
it when we switch bounds calculation from multi_column_restriction to
expr classes.

It will be used in statement_restrictions for calculating clustering
bounds. And it will come in handy elsewhere in the future, I'm sure.

Replace operator_type with the nicer-behaved oper_t in CQL parser and,
consequently, in the relation hierarchy and column_condition.
After this, no references to operator_type remain in live code.

operator_type is awkward because it's not copyable or assignable.
Replace it in expression representation with a new enum class, oper_t.

Move the classes representing CQL expressions (and utility functions
on them) from the `restrictions` namespace to a new namespace `expr`.
Most of the restriction.hh content was moved verbatim to
expression.hh. Similarly, all expression-related code was moved from
statement_restrictions.cc verbatim to expression.cc.
