   ### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
   This PR supports using table-valued generator functions in the FROM clause 
of a query. A generator function can be registered in the table function 
registry and resolved as a table function during analysis.
   
   Note this PR only adds support for two built-in generator functions: 
`explode` and `explode_outer` with literal input values. We will support more 
generator functions and LATERAL references in separate PRs.
   
   ### Why are the changes needed?
   To make table-valued generator functions more user-friendly and consistent 
with Spark's built-in table function Range.
   
   ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
   Yes. Before this PR, the built-in generator function explode/explode_outer 
cannot be used in the FROM clause:
   ```
   select * from explode(array(1, 2))
   
   AnalysisException: could not resolve `explode` to a table-valued function;
   ```
   After this PR, we can support this usage:
   ```
   select * from explode(array(1, 2))
   
   +---+
   |col|
   +---+
   |  1|
   |  2|
   +---+
   ```

cases if possible.

it was difficult to add.
