Review Comment:
@rgbuilds thanks for the fix! The root cause is that pruning has its own
order check that allows any cast unless exactly one side is a string, instead
of asking `is_order_preserving_cast` in
`physical-expr/src/expressions/cast.rs`, which already rejects this cast. So
similar casts still drop rows here, e.g. `CAST(i AS BOOLEAN)` and `CAST(i AS
BYTEA)` (#26981). #26982 moves pruning onto that shared rule and will replace
this arm, so this is fine to merge as the fix for #26451. Could you add a TODO
here so nobody extends this special case in the meantime?

// TODO: decide this with `is_order_preserving_cast` (physical-expr),
which
// already rejects this cast, instead of special-casing pairs here.
