> Usually there are some duplicate data in the source due to some reasons.  In 
> order to get a correct result, we need to do deduplication. FirstRow and 
> LastRow are two different strategy for deduplication. The syntax of FirstRow 
> and LastRow is similar to TopN, but order by a time attribute. For example: 
> SELECT *
> FROM (
>   SELECT *, 
>   ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY id ORDER BY proctime DESC) as rownum
>   FROM T
> )
> WHERE rownum = 1
> Some information about FirstRow & LastRow.
> 1. the partition by key is the deduplicate key
> 2. can only order by a time attribute (either proctime or rowtime)
> 3. the rownum filter must be {{= 1}} or {{<= 1}}
> 4. it is FirstRow when order direction is ASC,  LastRow when order direction 
> is DESC
> This issue is aiming to optimize this query to a FirstLastRow node instead of 
> Over plus Calc. And translate the it into physical operators.
