This change allows users to write CAST(x AS LONG) in SQL queries, which is treated as equivalent to CAST(x AS BIGINT). This is useful for users migrating from the native engine who are accustomed to working with LONG types. Changes: - Add LONG keyword to the parser configuration - Modify SqlTypeName1 rule to accept LONG as an alias for BIGINT - Add test case to verify CAST AS LONG works correctly Fixes apache#17425

Description
This PR adds support for using
LONGas an alias forBIGINTin SQL CAST expressions. Users who are familiar with Druid's native engine often useLONGas a type name, but the SQL parser previously did not recognize it, resulting in an error.After this change, the following SQL will work correctly:
This is equivalent to:
Motivation
People using the native engine may write
CAST(some AS LONG)because they are accustomed to working with those types. However, the SQL parser didn't know that type and returned an error. This change handlesLONGas an alias toBIGINTfor better user experience.Fixes #17425
