--------------------------------------------
@julianhyde , sorry for pinging you, however, the change somehow throws
AssertionError in a couple of slow tests:
https://github.com/apache/calcite/actions/runs/239955332
I wonder if you would like to force-push the fix or if the fix could be added
as an extra commit.

> Add internal SEARCH operator and Sarg literal, replacing use of IN in RexCall.
> Recently we started to allow IN in RexCalls to represent lists of constant
> values; previously it had only been allowed in SqlCall. The use is confusing,
> because a RexSubQuery is a sub-class of RexCall that may also use IN as its
> operator.
> More important, we would like to be able to represent more general search
> arguments in a single RexCall. Examples:
> * {{x BETWEEN 3 AND 10}}
> * {{x > 3 AND x <= 10}}
> * {{x NOT BETWEEN 3 AND 10}}
> * {{x IS NULL OR x BETWEEN 3 AND 100 AND x != 50 OR x IN (200, 300, 400)}}
> * {{x > 5 AND x < 10 AND x IN (3, 8, 10, 20)}}
> All of these can be converted to sets of ranges, where each range has a lower
> or upper bound (or both), bounds can be open or closed, plus a flag to say
> whether NULL is an allowed value. Guava's RangeSet is an efficient
> implementation of range sets.
> This change would create a new class {{Sarg}} to represent a range set as a
> literal. The new internal SEARCH operator tests whether an operand belongs to
> the range set.
> A RexCall to SEARCH is converted back to SQL, typically an IN or OR.
> This change would obsolete the use of IN in {{RexCall}} to represent a fixed
> list of values. (This is a breaking change, but when we first allowed IN in
> {{RexCall}}, in CALCITE-2444, it was only intended to be for
> {{RelToSqlConverter}}. Most people still believe that [IN is not
> allowed|https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/e1c5d56ecca7c1bc3608344ceac9b209bb8100fbca1c1928feb9cce7%40%3Cdev.calcite.apache.org%3E].)
