   - In Spark 3.2, `TRANSFORM` operator can support 
`ArrayType/MapType/StructType` without Hive SerDe, in this mode, we use 
`StructsToJosn` to convert `ArrayType/MapType/StructType` column to `STRING` 
and use `JsonToStructs` to parse `STRING` to `ArrayType/MapType/StructType`. In 
Spark 3.1, Spark just support case `ArrayType/MapType/StructType` column as 
`STRING` but can't support parse `STRING` to `ArrayType/MapType/StructType` 
output columns.
 
-  - In Spark 3.2, the unit-to-unit interval literals like `INTERVAL '1-1' YEAR 
TO MONTH` are converted to ANSI interval types: `YearMonthIntervalType` or 
`DayTimeIntervalType`. In Spark 3.1 and earlier, such interval literals are 
converted to `CalendarIntervalType`. To restore the behavior before Spark 3.2, 
you can set `spark.sql.legacy.interval.enabled` to `true`.
+  - In Spark 3.2, the unit-to-unit interval literals like `INTERVAL '1-1' YEAR 
TO MONTH` and the unit list interval literals like `INTERVAL '3' DAYS '1' HOUR` 
are converted to ANSI interval types: `YearMonthIntervalType` or 
`DayTimeIntervalType`. In Spark 3.1 and earlier, such interval literals are 
converted to `CalendarIntervalType`. To restore the behavior before Spark 3.2, 
you can set `spark.sql.legacy.interval.enabled` to `true`.
+
+  - In Spark 3.2, the unit list interval literals support two category of 
units. The one is year-month units (YEAR and MONTH) and the other is day-time 
units (DAY, HOUR, MINUTE and SECOND). Units are allowd to be listed within the 
same category like `5 YEARS 8 MONTHS` or `1 DAY 2 MINUTE`. In Spark 3.1 and 
earlier, WEEK, MILLISECOND, MICROSECOND and NANOSECOND are also supported as 
units, and any units are allowed to be listed in a literal. To restore the 
behavior before Spark 3.2, you can set `spark.sql.legacy.interval.enabled` to 
`true`.

Review comment:
       Do we have to forbid `WEEK, MILLISECOND, MICROSECOND and NANOSECOND`? I 
think the only limitation is people can't mix year-month and day-time fields 
now, but I don't see why we need to forbid `WEEK, MILLISECOND, MICROSECOND and 
NANOSECOND`.
