+/**
+ * Marker interface for expressions that can convert NULL input into a 
non-NULL output.
+ *
+ * For example: COALESCE(NULL, 2) → 2, NVL(NULL, 0) → 0, NULL_OR_EMPTY(NULL) → 
true.
+ *
+ * This is significant for outer-join push-down safety: when an aggregate 
function contains
+ * a NullToNonNull expression wrapping a column from the nullable side of an 
outer join,
+ * the aggregation must NOT be pushed down. Null-extended rows (produced by 
the join for
+ * unmatched rows) have NULL for all nullable-side columns. The NullToNonNull 
expression
+ * would convert those NULLs to non-NULL values, and the pre-aggregation would 
miss those
+ * contributions because null-extended rows do not exist in the base table.
