matriv opened a new pull request #19270:
URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/19270


   ## What is the purpose of the change
   
   Previously, `LEAST` and `GREATEST` functions would return primitive
   types in the generated code implementing their logic, producing issues
   for operators applied on top of them, and most importantly comparison
   operators, i.e.:
   ```
   f0 INT, f1 INT
   SELECT GREATEST(f0, f1) = GREATEST(f0, f1)
   ```
   would return `FALSE`, since the generated code would return `Integer`
   instead of `int`, as the result of `GREATEST`, and the `=` operator
   on `Integer` objects would return false, even if the actual integer
   value of them was the same.
   
   
   ## Brief change log
   
     - Change code generation for `LEAST`/`GREATEST` to return primitive types 
instead of boxed, (null is already handled correctly with the use of 
`nullTerm`s.
