[SPARK-39707][SQL][DOCS] Add SQL reference for aggregate functions
### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Currently, Spark have a lot of built-in aggregate functions.
But the SQL Reference cannot find these aggregate functions directly and
cannot describe the special syntax for PERCENTILE_CONT and PERCENTILE_DISC.
### Why are the changes needed?
Add SQL reference for aggregate functions
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
'Yes'.
Users can find these aggregate functions directly and the special syntax
for PERCENTILE_CONT and PERCENTILE_DISC.
Before this PR, the part 'Data Retrieval Statements' of 'SQL Syntax' show
below.

After this PR, the part 'Data Retrieval Statements' of 'SQL Syntax' show
below.

The page 'Aggregate Functions' show below.




### How was this patch tested?
N/A
Closes #37116 from beliefer/SPARK-39707.

+
+### Description
+
+Aggregate functions operate on values across rows to perform mathematical
calculations such as sum, average, counting, minimum/maximum values, standard
deviation, and estimation, as well as some non-mathematical operations.
+
+### Syntax
+
+```sql
+aggregate_function(input1 [, input2, ...]) FILTER (WHERE boolean_expression)
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+* **aggregate_function**
+
+ Please refer to the [Built-in Aggregation
Functions](sql-ref-functions-builtin.html#aggregate-functions) document for a
complete list of Spark aggregate functions.
+
+* **boolean_expression**
+
+ Specifies any expression that evaluates to a result type boolean. Two or
more expressions may be combined together using the logical operators ( AND, OR
).
+
+### Examples
+
+Please refer to the [Built-in Aggregation
Functions](sql-ref-functions-builtin.html#aggregate-functions) document for all
the examples of Spark aggregate functions.
+
+### Ordered-Set Aggregate Functions
+
+These aggregate Functions use different syntax than the other aggregate
functions so that to specify an expression (typically a column name) by which
to order the values.
+
+#### Syntax
+
+```sql
+{ PERCENTILE_CONT | PERCENTILE_DISC }(percentile) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY {
order_by_expression [ ASC | DESC ] [ NULLS { FIRST | LAST } ] [ , ... ] })
FILTER (WHERE boolean_expression)
+```
+
+#### Parameters
+
+* **percentile**
+
+ The percentile of the value that you want to find. The percentile must be
a constant between 0.0 and 1.0.
+
+* **order_by_expression**
+
+ The expression (typically a column name) by which to order the values
before aggregating them.
+
+* **boolean_expression**
+
+ Specifies any expression that evaluates to a result type boolean. Two or
more expressions may be combined together using the logical operators ( AND, OR
).
+
+#### Examples
+
+```sql
+CREATE OR REPLACE TEMPORARY VIEW basic_pays AS SELECT * FROM VALUES
