Review Comment:
   Generating unique aliases with some kind of index is a great idea, but I'm 
not sure this implementation is robust enough. The rule 
`CommonSubexprEliminate` can run many times during optimization so starting 
alias index always from 0 might result colliding column names.
   
   I wonder if we could check the schema for possible duplicates before 
assigning an alias? This idea has actually come up before: 
https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/10473#discussion_r1604645685, but 
would be better to implement in a separate PR like this one.
   
   Also, do you think we can assign aliases with "cse_" or "common_" prefix? 
IMO we don't need a special `#` prefix for that.
