Description
Adds new MSQ query context parameter
useAutoColumnSchemasas a sort of hacky backdoor to allow using the latest and greatest features added in #14014 and related PRs (#13803, etc). When set, all columns except for customCOMPLEXcolumn types will use the native 'auto' column indexer added in #14014 when generating segments. I call this a bit hacky because MSQ doesn't officially support the true array types besidesARRAY<STRING>, which is translated intoSTRINGunless the new context flag is set, but other array types can be still be ingested by specifyingCOMPLEX<json>as the input schema to use the complex passthrough.I did not document this at this time on purpose, this is mainly for allowing experimentation with the newer column features and MSQ.
