> {{FilterJoinRule}} performs some optimizations based on 
> {{RelOptUtil#simplifyJoin}}. Specifically, this part of the code:
> {code}
> if (joinType.generatesNullsOnRight()
>   && Strong.isNotTrue(filter, rightBitmap)) {
>     joinType = joinType.cancelNullsOnRight();
> }
> {code}
> allows e.g. a LEFT join with a condition on its RHS to be transformed into an 
> INNER join, with the condition pushed on its right input.
> In order to achieve this, the utility class {{Strong}} defines a certain 
> {{Policy}} map, depending on the {{SqlKind}} of a {{RexNode}} (i.e. depending 
> on the filter condition). In case of operators such as {{EQUALS}}, 
> {{NOT_EQUALS}}, {{LESS_THAN}}, etc, it defines {{Policy.ANY}} (i.e. 
> expression is null if and only if at least one of its arguments is null). In 
> case of a left join with conditions with this policy on the right-hand-side, 
> the join gets simplified by this module because of the nullability of the 
> right columns. However, in the case of {{SqlUserDefinedFunction}} the policy 
> is the default {{Policy.AS_IS}}, which prevents the simplification from 
> happening.
> It is proposed to enrich {{SqlUserDefinedFunction}} with an optional 
> {{Strong.Policy}}, and adapt {{Strong#isNull}} so that these functions can 
> also benefit from this simplification.
