ulysses 184074de22 [SPARK-31999][SQL] Add REFRESH FUNCTION command
### What changes were proposed in this pull request?

In Hive mode, permanent functions are shared with Hive metastore so that functions may be modified by other Hive client. With in long-lived spark scene, it's hard to update the change of function.

Here are 2 reasons:
* Spark cache the function in memory using `FunctionRegistry`.
* User may not know the location or classname of udf when using `replace function`.

Note that we use v2 command code path to add new command.

### Why are the changes needed?

Give a easy way to make spark function registry sync with Hive metastore.
Then we can call
```
refresh function functionName
```

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?

Yes, new command.

### How was this patch tested?

New UT.

Closes #28840 from ulysses-you/SPARK-31999.

### Description
`UNCACHE TABLE` removes the entries and associated data from the in-memory and/or on-disk cache for a given table or view. The
underlying entries should already have been brought to cache by previous `CACHE TABLE` operation. `UNCACHE TABLE` on a non-existent table throws an exception if `IF EXISTS` is not specified.
### Syntax
```sql
UNCACHE TABLE [ IF EXISTS ] table_identifier
```
### Parameters
* **table_identifier**
Specifies the table or view name to be uncached. The table or view name may be optionally qualified with a database name.
**Syntax:** `[ database_name. ] table_name`
### Examples
```sql
UNCACHE TABLE t1;
```
