   @philo-he Thanks. Yes, this only rewrites literal patterns. The translation, 
and the decision to fall back on constructs RE2 cannot express (lookaround, 
backreferences, unpaired surrogates), both happen at plan time, when the 
pattern value is known.
   
   Patterns from a column are not affected by this PR. `validateRegexExpr` in 
`SubstraitToVeloxPlanValidator.cc` already rejects any non-literal pattern 
("Pattern is not string literal for <fn>"), so those expressions fall back to 
Spark as before.
   
   Moving the rewrite into Velox would let us translate `\uXXXX` for column 
patterns too. But unsupported constructs in a column pattern could then only be 
detected during execution, so we could not fall back to Spark and would risk 
failing queries that Spark runs fine. I would prefer to keep this PR to the 
literal case, which keeps the fall-back-rather-than-fail behavior, and treat 
column patterns as a separate follow-up if they turn out to matter. If you 
think it is worth tracking, I can open an issue for it.
