Zhenhua Wang 365a29bdbf [SPARK-22100][SQL] Make percentile_approx support date/timestamp type and change the output type to be the same as input type
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

The `percentile_approx` function previously accepted numeric type input and output double type results.

But since all numeric types, date and timestamp types are represented as numerics internally, `percentile_approx` can support them easily.

After this PR, it supports date type, timestamp type and numeric types as input types. The result type is also changed to be the same as the input type, which is more reasonable for percentiles.

This change is also required when we generate equi-height histograms for these types.

## How was this patch tested?

Added a new test and modified some existing tests.

Closes #19321 from wzhfy/approx_percentile_support_types.

Spark SQL

This module provides support for executing relational queries expressed in either SQL or the DataFrame/Dataset API.

Spark SQL is broken up into four subprojects:

  • Catalyst (sql/catalyst) - An implementation-agnostic framework for manipulating trees of relational operators and expressions.
  • Execution (sql/core) - A query planner / execution engine for translating Catalyst's logical query plans into Spark RDDs. This component also includes a new public interface, SQLContext, that allows users to execute SQL or LINQ statements against existing RDDs and Parquet files.
  • Hive Support (sql/hive) - Includes an extension of SQLContext called HiveContext that allows users to write queries using a subset of HiveQL and access data from a Hive Metastore using Hive SerDes. There are also wrappers that allows users to run queries that include Hive UDFs, UDAFs, and UDTFs.
  • HiveServer and CLI support (sql/hive-thriftserver) - Includes support for the SQL CLI (bin/spark-sql) and a HiveServer2 (for JDBC/ODBC) compatible server.

Running sql/create-docs.sh generates SQL documentation for built-in functions under sql/site.
