Monty 81d9bed3a4 MDEV-20017 Implement TO_CHAR() Oracle compatible function
TO_CHAR(expr, fmt)
- expr: required parameter, data/time/timestamp type expression
- fmt: optional parameter, format string, supports
  YYYY/YYY/YY/RRRR/RR/MM/MON/MONTH/MI/DD/DY/HH/HH12/HH24/SS and special
  characters. The default value is "YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS"

In Oracle, TO_CHAR() can also be used to convert numbers to strings, but
this is not supported. This will gave an error in this patch.

Other things:
- If format strings is a constant, it's evaluated only once and if there
  is any errors in it, they are given at once and the statement will abort.
