> CACHE TABLE causes the following query to return incorrect results:
> {code:sql}
> CREATE TABLE n(id INT, v DOUBLE) USING PARQUET;
> INSERT INTO n VALUES (1, 1.5), (2, CAST('NaN' AS DOUBLE)), (3, 0.0);
> SELECT id FROM n WHERE v = CAST('NaN' AS DOUBLE);   -- 1 row, correct
> CACHE TABLE n;
> SELECT id FROM n WHERE v = CAST('NaN' AS DOUBLE);   -- 0 rows
> {code}
> Caching the table changes the answer. Spark's equality treats NaN as equal to 
> itself, so the
> correct result is 1 row in both cases.
> The batch statistics are gathered with IEEE comparison.
> In {{{}DoubleColumnStats.gatherValueStats 
> ([src|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/4dcdd4dba544210898180a410b8b30e0b85157cb/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/columnar/ColumnStats.scala#L247-L252])
>  the bounds are updated with \{{{}if (value > upper) upper = value{}}}, and 
> every comparison against NaN is false, so NaN never widens the maximum. The 
> batch containing NaN therefore reports bounds drawn only from its non-NaN 
> values.
> The pruning test then compares under Catalyst's total ordering, where NaN 
> sorts above all other values. 
> {{SimpleMetricsCachedBatchSerializer.buildFilter}} evaluates
> {{{}lowerBound <= lit && lit <= upperBound{}}}, the literal NaN is above the 
> recorded maximum, and the batch is skipped. The row is not returned.
> {{FloatColumnStats}} has the same shape and the same defect.
> Related: SPARK-24934 fixed the same class of problem for partition pruning, 
> where min/max
> statistics were used for types whose comparison semantics did not match. This 
> is the columnar cache instance of it.
> Suggested direction: gather the bounds using the same ordering the pruning 
> test uses, or record a NaN-present flag and skip bounds pruning for a NaN 
> literal. Whichever is chosen, producer and consumer need to agree on the 
> comparator, which is the actual invariant being broken here.
