What problem does this PR solve?
This commit modifies the
ExpressionAnalyzerto handle cases where a user wants to override special built-in functions (like arithmetic, format, or datetime functions) with their own UDFs.Previously, the analyzer would throw an
AnalysisExceptionimmediately if binding to these specific built-in implementations failed, preventing any subsequent UDF lookup.Now, if the session variable
prefer_udf_over_builtinis set to true, the analyzer catches theAnalysisExceptionduring the built-in binding attempt and allows the process to continue, enabling thsubsequent lookup for a matching UDF in the function registry.
