Review Comment:
   Agreed, the const evaluation is far from complete. I tried to do something 
good enough for the coalesce simplification initially.
   I was wondering the whole time if there isn't some existing null analysis 
logic somewhere in the codebase we could reuse. The best I could come up with 
is rewriting the full expression by replacing the `then` expression with 
literal `NULL` and then attempting const evaluation. But that got me worrying 
about planning overhead again.
