--------------------------------------

By the way, I chose DuckDB integer division arbitrarily. Feel free to pick a more appropriate target.

> SQL dialects treat DIVISION in different ways: in some dialects division by 0 produces an exception, while in other dialects (e.q. sqlite) it produces NULL.
> These are really two different operators with the same name. I think they should be represented by different operations in the IR: e.g., DIVIDE and SAFE_DIVIDE.
> This is reminiscent to the CHECKED arithmetic operations introduced in [CALCITE-6685], and the solution could be similar: in that issue whether an ADD operation is checked or unchecked is a property of SqlConformance. Similarly, we could add a boolean flag to SqlConformance indicating whether division is safe or not and a visitor that will rewrite DIVIDE to SAFE_DIVIDE when necessary.
> Spawn from [CALCITE-7145]
> I am happy to assign this to myself if people agree.
