----------------------------------

             Summary: Sql ANY type handling when find least restrictive type or 
add cast function
                 Key: CALCITE-976
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-976
             Project: Calcite
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jinfeng Ni
            Assignee: Julian Hyde


This comes from a commit in Drill's forked Calcite 
(https://github.com/dremio/calcite/commit/32accb4ca09b8b1029caf6d1c3cc5a6010106b86)

1) When one input type is ANY, SqlTypeFactoryImpl.leastRestrictiveSqlType() 
should return ANY.

2) Do not create CAST() function, if target type is ANY.

[~mehant], could you please submit a PR after rebasing ?
