Review comment:
During the optimization phase some of the rules need the "expanded"
version of aggregate expressions (references are restored to original
expressions). This is why I wanted to keep the meaning of
`Aggregate.aggregateExpressions` and the second argument of the
`Aggregate.unapply()` extractor. Also when an optimizer rule creates an
aggregate using `Aggregete.apply()` then it should automatically insert
references the grouping expressions.
I think it would be error prone if the optimizer rules need to keep in mind
that they need to convert/restore these references and it is probably better to
convert/restore references transparently.
