Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-5389:
--------------------------------------

In CALCITE-5346 we discuss making {{BYTES}} an alias for {{VARBINARY}}. 
Therefore in this change, it is sufficient to make {{STARTS_WITH}} work on 
{{VARBINARY}} data (in addition to {{VARCHAR}}).

Some existing string functions (e.g. {{SUBSTRING}}) work for both 
strings-of-characters and strings-of-bytes, and it should be possible to use a 
similar approach here.
