/**
 * An extension to the {@link SqlValidatorScope} interface which indicates that

 *
 * A scope which is aggregating must implement this interface. Such a scope
 * will return the same set of identifiers as its parent scope, but some of
 * those identifiers may not be accessible because they are not in the GROUP BY
 * clause.

  /**
   * Checks whether an expression is constant within the GROUP BY clause. If
   * the expression completely matches an expression in the GROUP BY clause,
   * returns true. If the expression is constant within the group, but does
   * not exactly match, returns false. If the expression is not constant,
   * throws an exception. Examples:
   *
   * 

   * If we are 'f(b, c)' in 'SELECT a + f(b, c) FROM t GROUP BY a', then
   * the whole expression matches a group column. Return true.
   * 
Just an ordinary expression in a GROUP BY query, such as 'f(SUM(a),
   * 1, b)' in 'SELECT f(SUM(a), 1, b) FROM t GROUP BY b'. Returns false.
   * 
Illegal expression, such as 'f(5, a, b)' in 'SELECT f(a, b) FROM t
   * GROUP BY a'. Throws when it enounters the 'b' operand, because it is not
   * in the group clause.
