   ## Rationale for this change
   
   <!--
    Why are you proposing this change? If this is already explained clearly in 
the issue then this section is not needed.

   To make it easier to test memory-limited queries, i was looking for a 
datasource which can generate long streams, and itself doesn't consume lots of 
memory.
   There are several existing approaches are close, but can't fully satisfy 
this requirement:
   - `MemoryExec` have to buffer all output data up front
   - `select * from unnest(generate_series(1,10000))` also have to buffer all 
output during construction
   - It's possible to do such tests on large files, however it would be hard to 
setup and takes longer to run
   
   So in this PR, a new `StreamingMemoryExec` is introduced, it can be used to 
generate batches lazily by defining a 'iterator' on `RecordBatch` in its 
interface. And a new user-defined table function is implemented with this new 
execution plan.
   I also think this UDTF can be useful to tests/micro-benchmarks in general
   
   ```
   > select * from generate_series(1,3);
   +-------+
   | value |
   +-------+
   | 1     |
   | 2     |
   | 3     |
   +-------+
   ```
   
   ## What changes are included in this PR?
   
   <!--
   There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here but it is 
sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR.

   1. Move `TableFunctionImpl` from `datafusion` crate -> `datafusion-catalog` 
crate, so new UDTFs defined in `datafusion-functions-table` crate won't have 
circular dependency with `datafusion` crate (`TableFunctionImpl` depends on 
`TableProvider` in `datafusion-catalog` crate, so I think it's the best place 
to move it to)
   2. Introduced `StreamingMemoryExec`
   3. Implemented a new UDTF `generate_series()`
   
   ## Are these changes tested?
   
   <!--
   We typically require tests for all PRs in order to:
   1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes
   4. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code
   
   If tests are not included in your PR, please explain why (for example, are 
they covered by existing tests)?
   -->
   Unit tests for `StreamingMemoryExec`, and `sqllogictest`s for 
`generate_series()` UDTF
   
   ## Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   No
   <!--
   If there are user-facing changes then we may require documentation to be 
updated before approving the PR.
   -->
   
   <!--
   If there are any breaking changes to public APIs, please add the `api 
change` label.
