Review Comment:
   **Non-blocking:**
   
   Compute `inputStr.numChars()` once and branch directly to pad, return, or 
truncate. The current path scans over-limit strings once in `varcharTypeCast` 
and again here.

Review Comment:
   **Nit:**
   
   ```suggestion
   -- widening; casting to VARCHAR/STRING keeps the CHAR pad, so CHAR 'a' 
(stored as 'a ') is not equal
   ```
