Allow datastore function as query expression
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: OPENJPA-1195
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-1195
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Pinaki Poddar
            Assignee: Pinaki Poddar


Create a query expression that uses a datastore function such as MOD(..) or 
MAX(..) in a generic fashion.

This is required by function() support for CriteriaQuery and adds a generic 
capability for queries so we can query something like

  "select  CURRENT_USER(), x.name FROM Person x WHERE LENGTH(x.name)>10 ORDER 
BY LENGTH(x.name)"

Notice that JPQL Parser may not like the syntax -- but CriteriaQuery will allow 
such possibility.

Allow the function() to accept 0 or more arguments as expressions.
