Description

Add LENGTH() as a synonym under the BigQuery library. Calcite currently supports CHAR_LENGTH() and CHARACTER_LENGTH() as standard functions which return the length of a provided string of characters. BigQuery offers the LENGTH() function which serves the same purpose.

Example: SELECT LENGTH("hello"); would return 5.
