Add CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, CURRENT_TIMEZONE, and CURRENT_DATE execution context variables as POJO expressions, modeled under a shared ExecutionContextVariable marker interface. Each is a leaf expression whose result type has NULLABILITY_REQUIRED nullability per the Substrait spec. Includes visitor support (ExpressionVisitor / AbstractExpressionVisitor and direct implementors), bidirectional protobuf conversion, and ExpressionCreator / SubstraitBuilder helpers, plus a round-trip test.

Summary
Adds support for the
Expression.ExecutionContextVariablemessage introduced in Substrait v0.87.0, modeling the three execution-context-dependent variables as POJO expressions:CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(CurrentTimestamp, carries a fractional-secondprecision)CURRENT_TIMEZONE(CurrentTimezone)CURRENT_DATE(CurrentDate)All three implement a shared
ExecutionContextVariablemarker interface (extendingExpression, mirroring theLiteral/Nested/Subqueryprecedent). Per the spec, each is a leaf expression whose result type always hasNULLABILITY_REQUIREDnullability.Resolves #802 (part of the v0.87.0 epic #790; sibling to the
ExecutionBehaviorwork in #791).Changes
