[FLINK-4109] [tableAPI] Change the name of ternary condition operator
It's better to use "?" than "eval()" for ternary condition operator in
Table API since most people comming from Java/C/C++ know what it does. However,
"eval()" is ambiguous.
The condition operator looks like this now:
```
(42 > 5).?("A", "B")
(42 > 5) ? ("A", "B")
```
The document has been updated too.
As it is a public API, I hope it can be reviewed soon and merged before
release.
