@kai-zeng in `HiveTypeCoercion`, there are lots of rules to
guarantee/produce the correct data type for the built-in expressions like here.
I mean, instead of adding check here, can we just keep updating/adding the
rules in `HiveTypeCoercion`? As in most of cases, what people need is the
correct casting, not throwing exception right?
