Summary
Snowflake allows a function to be invoked under a dynamically-resolved name, e.g.
IDENTIFIER('my_func')(1, 2)orIDENTIFIER($fn)(). Previously the parser handledIDENTIFIER(...)itself but raised aParseErroron the trailing argument list:failing some of Snowflake's documented examples:
The aim of this PR is to add support for Snowflake's dynamic function invocation through
IDENTIFIER().DynamicIdentifiernow carries an optionalexpressionsarg holding the call arguments. The Snowflake parser consumes a trailing argument list afterIDENTIFIER(...), and generation emits the call form, preserving the distinction between a name reference (IDENTIFIER('f')) and a zero-arg invocation (IDENTIFIER('f')()). Transpiling to other dialects resolves the call to a plain function call, e.g. DuckDBmy_func(1, 2). Also added tests for covering the use-cases.
