    Thanks.
    
    If we have forseen this need in near future, do we bother to combine them
    here and separate it again later?

    In summary, I have no strong preference.
    
    In the future, we will want to distinguish Literal and Global for some
    optimizations. This
    
<https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/catalyst/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/expressions/Expression.scala#L121>
    is already one of optimizations for Literal.
    
    If this PR just focuses on classifying types between arguments and
    non-arguments, it is fine to combine Literal and Global. Then, another PR
    will separate one type into Literal and Global.
