Till updated ASTERIXDB-2399:
----------------------------
Description:
There are 2 kinds of aggregation functions in SQL++ right now:
# those with the prefix ARRAY_ (which share SQL's behavior or ignoring NULL) and
# those with the prefix COLL_ (which return NULL, if one of the values is NULL).
To reduce the confusion about which functions implement a strict NULL handling
we should rename to COLL_ functions to use the prefix STRICT_ instead.
