Support metadata on literal values #15797

Description

@timsaucer

Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge?

This is a follow on to the discussion in #15646 where the user would like to have metadata specified on literal values.

Describe the solution you'd like

I do not have a specific plan in mind, but I could imaging that the literal functions that take in a scalar value could take in some optional metadata and store it. Then when the return_field_from_args gets called, the metadata would be available. I think we also should solicit some additional use case from the originator of the idea.

Describe alternatives you've considered

There is a work around where the user can write their own simple scalar UDF to handle this.
