MaxGekk opened a new pull request #26256: [WIP][SPARK-29605][SQL] Optimize 
string to interval casting
URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/26256
 
 
   ### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
   In the PR, I propose new function `stringToInterval()` in `IntervalUtils` 
for converting `UTF8String` to `CalendarInterval`. The function is used in 
casting a `STRING` column to an `INTERVAL` column.
   
   ### Why are the changes needed?
   The proposed implementation is ~10 times faster. For example, parsing 9 
interval units on JDK 8:
   Before:
   ```
   9 units w/ interval                               14004          14125       
  116          0.1       14003.6       0.0X
   9 units w/o interval                              13785          14056       
  290          0.1       13784.9       0.0X
   ```
   After:
   ```
   9 units w/ interval                                1343           1344       
    1          0.7        1343.0       0.3X
   9 units w/o interval                               1345           1349       
    8          0.7        1344.6       0.3X
   ```
   
   ### Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?
   No
   
   ### How was this patch tested?
   - By new tests for `stringToInterval` in `IntervalUtilsSuite`
   - By existing tests
