+//! This example demonstrates a custom relation planner that intercepts table names
+//! with a special prefix and dynamically loads CSV files from a virtual directory.
+//!
+//! Use case: Query files without explicitly registering them as tables.
+//! Example: `SELECT * FROM csv_data_users` loads `./data/users.csv`
+//!
+//! This example demonstrates ALL RelationPlannerContext methods:
+//! - object_name_to_table_reference: Convert SQL table names to TableReference
