### Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? This is a follow on to the discussion in https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/15646 where the user would like to have metadata specified on literal values. ### Describe the solution you'd like I do not have a specific plan in mind, but I could imaging that the literal functions that take in a scalar value could take in some optional metadata and store it. Then when the `return_field_from_args` gets called, the metadata would be available. I think we also should solicit some additional use case from the originator of the idea. ### Describe alternatives you've considered There is a work around where the user can write their own simple scalar UDF to handle this. ### Additional context _No response_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
