Description

Once CASSANDRA-7395 and CASSANDRA-7526 are complete, we'll want to add cqlsh support for user defined functions.

This will include:

• Completion for CREATE FUNCTION and DROP FUNCTION
• Tolerating (almost) arbitrary text inside function bodies
• DESCRIBE TYPE support
• Including types in DESCRIBE KEYSPACE output
• Possibly GRANT completion for any new privileges
