### Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Part of https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/9285 and https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/8045 The goal is to extract function definitions out of the datafusion core. This ticket also has the nice benefit of being able to show off the newly added API in https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/8985 ### Describe the solution you'd like Move the arrow_cast function to datafusion-functions ### Describe alternatives you've considered Note arrow_cast is somewhat different than most functions as it is implemented as part of sql parsing rather than as a normal BuiltinFunction. This means that the rest of datafusion sees it as an `Expr::Cast` which has special case handling. We may need to add some way to for ScalarUDFs to simplify themselves (in this case for ArrowCast to "unwrap" itself). ### Additional context _No response_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
