What is this
As the title said, this PR wants to add support for CAST function in MySQL.
This PR is based from PR by @ryanpbrewster here (which unfortunately he didn't send here, and only exist in his repository).
Why is this PR created
Currently sqlc unable to infer the correct type from SQL function like MAX, MIN, SUM, etc. For those function, sqlc will return its value as interface{}. This behavior can be seen in this playground.
As workaround, it advised to use CAST function to explicitly tell what is the type for that column, as mentioned in #1574.
Unfortunately, currently sqlc only support CAST function in PostgreSQL and not in MySQL. Thanks to this, right now MySQL users have to parse the interface{} manually, which is not really desirable.
What does this PR do?
Implement convertFuncCast function for MySQL.
Add better nil pointer check in some functions that related to convertFuncCast.
I haven't write any test because I'm not sure how and where to put it. However, as far as I know the code that handle ast.TypeCast for PostgreSQL also don't have any test, so I guess it's fine 🤷♂️
