> This will add an add_hours function that'll make it easier to add and 
> subtract hours from datetime values.  Users currently need to manipulate 
> strings and write code like `expr("first_datetime + INTERVAL 2 hours")`.  
> It'll be a lot easier to let them write code like 
> `add_hours(col("first_datetime"), lit(2))`.  There's [a Stackoverflow 
> question on this topic with a lot of 
> views|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40883084/adding-12-hours-to-datetime-column-in-spark],
>  which indicates that this feature will help a lot of users.
> See the [GitHub pull request 
> description|https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/31000] for additional 
> details.
