[PR] Common pattern validation for all regexp* functions (druid)

abhishekrb19 opened a new pull request, #18762:
URL: https://github.com/apache/druid/pull/18762

   Currently, if a user runs `regexp_like(c2, '[abc-d-12]')`, they receive a cryptic error message like "Illegal character range near index ..." and this is unclear when the sql is quite complex.
   
   Move the `RegexpExtractExprMacro.compilePattern()` utility into a shared location and have all Regexp* macros use it, so that invalid regex patterns produce nicer error messages for users.
   
   #### Release note
   
   Nicer user-facing error messages for invalid patterns used in the regexp* functions.

Review Comment:
   Yeah, this is okay because the original null semantics is retained at this call site. 
   
   `RegexpExprUtils.compilePattern()` is called only when `patternString` is not null, otherwise `pattern` continues to remain null

Review Comment:
   We are moving from `Pattern.compile(patternString)` to `Pattern.compile(StringUtils.nullToEmptyNonDruidDataString(patternString))`. Is this ok?

Review Comment:
   maybe box the function name as well?
