Force sum/average to be calculated as a float.
As noted in #8221

This also makes overflows much more unlikely.
Queue output items and reuse them.
Remove the unneeded type system in sql and just use the Go type system.
In best case this is more than an order of magnitude speedup:
```
BenchmarkSelectAll_1M-12 1 1841049400 ns/op 274299728 B/op 4198522 allocs/op
BenchmarkSelectAll_1M-12 14 84833400 ns/op 169228346 B/op 3146541 allocs/op
```
The SQL parser as it stands right now ignores alias for aggregate
result, e.g. `SELECT COUNT(*) AS thing FROM s3object` doesn't actually
return record like `{"thing": 42}`, it returns a record like `{"_1": 42}`.
Column alias for aggregate result is supported in AWS's S3 Select, so
this commit fixes that by respecting the `expr.As` in the expression.
Also improve test for S3 select
On top of testing a simple `SELECT` query, we want to test a few more
"advanced" queries (e.g. aggregation).
Convert existing tests into table driven tests[1], and add the new test
cases with "advanced" queries into them.

This change adds support for casting strings to Timestamp via CAST:
`CAST('2010T' AS TIMESTAMP)`
It also implements the following date-time functions:
- UTCNOW()
- DATE_ADD()
- DATE_DIFF()
- EXTRACT()
For values passed to these functions, date-types are automatically
inferred.
- New parser written from scratch, allows easier and complete parsing
of the full S3 Select SQL syntax. Parser definition is directly
provided by the AST defined for the SQL grammar.
- Bring support to parse and interpret SQL involving JSON path
expressions; evaluation of JSON path expressions will be
subsequently added.
- Bring automatic type inference and conversion for untyped
values (e.g. CSV data).
