Implement DATETIME_PARSE(<datetime_str>, <pattern_str>) function
which allows to parse a datetime string according to the specified
pattern into a datetime object. The patterns allowed are those of
java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter.

Previously, DATEDIFF for minutes and hours was doing a
rounding calculation using all the time fields (secs, msecs/micros/nanos).
Instead it should first truncate the 2 dates to the respective field (mins or hours)
zeroing out all the more detailed time fields and then make the subtraction.

Previously, the safety check for the 2nd argument of the DateAddProcessor was
restricting it to Integer which was wrong since we allow all non-rational
numbers, so it's changed to a Number check as it's done in other cases.
Enhanced some tests regarding the check for an integer (non-rational
argument).

DATE_PART(<datetime unit>, <date/datetime>) is a function that allows
the user to extract the specified unit from a date/datetime field
similar to the EXTRACT (<datetime unit> FROM <date/datetime>) but
with different names and aliases for the units and it also provides more
options like `DATE_PART('tzoffset', datetimeField)`.
Implemented following the SQL server's spec: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/functions/datepart-transact-sql?view=sql-server-2017
with the difference that the <datetime unit> argument is either a
literal single quoted string or gets a value from a table field, whereas
in SQL server keywords are used (unquoted identifiers) and it's not
possible to use a value coming for a table column.

To be on the safe side in terms of use cases also add the alias

Enables support for Cartesian geometries shape type. We still need to
decide how to handle the distance function since it is currently using
the haversine distance formula and returns results in meters, which
doesn't make any sense for Cartesian geometries.

In AsciiDoc, `subs="attributes,callouts,macros"` options were required
to render `include-tagged::` in a code block.
With elastic/docs#827, Elasticsearch Reference documentation migrated
from AsciiDoc to Asciidoctor.
In Asciidoctor, the `subs="attributes,callouts,macros"` options are no
longer needed to render `include-tagged::` in a code block. This commit
removes those unneeded options.
Resolves#41589
Adds an initial limited implementations of geo features to SQL. This implementation is based on the [OpenGIS® Implementation Standard for Geographic information - Simple feature access](http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/sfs), which is the current standard for GIS system implementation. This effort is concentrate on SQL option AKA ISO 19125-2.
Queries that are supported as a result of this initial implementation
Metadata commands
- `DESCRIBE table` - returns the correct column types `GEOMETRY` for geo shapes and geo points.
- `SHOW FUNCTIONS` - returns a list that includes supported `ST_` functions
- `SYS TYPES` and `SYS COLUMNS` display correct types `GEO_SHAPE` and `GEO_POINT` for geo shapes and geo points accordingly.
Returning geoshapes and geopoints from elasticsearch
- `SELECT geom FROM table` - returns the geoshapes and geo_points as libs/geo objects in JDBC or as WKT strings in console.
- `SELECT ST_AsWKT(geom) FROM table;` and `SELECT ST_AsText(geom) FROM table;`- returns the geoshapes ang geopoints in their WKT representation;
Using geopoints to elasticsearch
- The following functions will be supported for geopoints in queries, sorting and aggregations: `ST_GeomFromText`, `ST_X`, `ST_Y`, `ST_Z`, `ST_GeometryType`, and `ST_Distance`. In most cases when used in queries, sorting and aggregations, these function are translated into script. These functions can be used in the SELECT clause for both geopoints and geoshapes.
- `SELECT * FROM table WHERE ST_Distance(ST_GeomFromText(POINT(1 2), point) < 10;` - returns all records for which `point` is located within 10m from the `POINT(1 2)`. In this case the WHERE clause is translated into a range query.
Limitations:
Geoshapes cannot be used in queries, sorting and aggregations as part of this initial effort. In order to fully take advantage of geoshapes we would need to have access to geoshape doc values, which is coming in #37206. `ST_Z` cannot be used on geopoints in queries, sorting and aggregations since we don't store altitude in geo_point doc values.

Backport of #42031
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.

After `TIME` SQL data type is introduced, implement
`CURRENT_TIME/CURTIME` functions similarly to CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
that return the system's current time (only, without the date part).

A full format for a DATETIME would be:
`2019-03-30T10:20:30.123+10:00` which is 29 chars long.
For DATE a full format would be: `2019-03-30T00:00:00.000+10:00`
which is also 29 chars long.

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.

`<expression>::<dataType>` is a simplified altenative syntax to
`CAST(<expression> AS <dataType> which exists in PostgreSQL and
provides an improved user experience and possibly more compact
SQL queries.
Fixes: #38717
FIRST and LAST can be used with one argument and work similarly to MIN
and MAX but they are implemented using a Top Hits aggregation and
therefore can also operate on keyword fields. When a second argument is
provided then they return the first/last value of the first arg when its
values are ordered ascending/descending (respectively) by the values of
the second argument. Currently because of the usage of a Top Hits
aggregation FIRST and LAST cannot be used in the HAVING clause of a
GROUP BY query to filter on the results of the aggregation.
Closes: #35639
