Review Comment:
`CompositeFunction` is similar to `CompositeAccess` but supports method call
syntax, that supports method calls on subquery results (must be `XML` data type
in MSSQL).
Maybe it would be better to make `CompositeFunction` a generic feature?
```rs
/// CompositeFunction
/// Syntax: `<arbitrary-expr>.<arbitrary-expr>.<arbitrary-expr>...`,
`arbitrary-expr` can be any expr including a function call.
/// Example:
/// ```sql
/// SELECT (SELECT ',' + name FROM sys.objects FOR XML PATH(''),
TYPE).value('.','NVARCHAR(MAX)')
/// SELECT
CONVERT(XML,'<Book>abc</Book>').value('.','NVARCHAR(MAX)').value('.','NVARCHAR(MAX)')
/// ```
CompositeFunction {
expr: Box<Expr>,
name: Ident,
args: Vec<Expr>,
},
```
