pepijnve opened a new pull request, #17997:
URL: https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/17997

   ## Which issue does this PR close?
   
   - Closes #17992
   
   
   ## Rationale for this change
   
   This PR provides an alternative mechanism for scalar UDFs to control 
argument evaluation besides rewriting to other constructs like `case`.
   
   ## What changes are included in this PR?
   
   - Add `ScalarUDF::invoke_with_deferred_arguments`
   - Adapt `ScalarFunctionExpr` to use this mechanism when the function is 
declared to be short circuiting.
   - Provide an initial implementation using this mechanism for `nvl`.
   
   ## Are these changes tested?
   
   Covered by SQL logic tests
   
   ## Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   The new mechanism doesn't change anything. For `nvl` specifically, argument 
evaluation changes from eager to lazy.
