is did test out of scope `CAST VARIANT As x` and giving unexpected output. I
believe its outside scope of PR.
```sql
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE variant_string_bug (id INT, v VARIANT) STORED BY
ICEBERG TBLPROPERTIES ('format-version'='3');
INSERT INTO variant_string_bug VALUES (1, CAST('{"name": "John"}' AS
VARIANT));
SELECT id, v FROM variant_string_bug;
SELECT id, CAST(v AS STRING) FROM variant_string_bug;
```
