[SPARK-54292][SQL] Support aggregate functions and GROUP BY in |> SELECT pipe operators

### What changes were proposed in this pull request?

This PR allows aggregate functions and `GROUP BY` to be used in `|> SELECT` pipe operators. Previously, these were only allowed in `|> AGGREGATE` pipe operators.

**Example queries now supported:**

-- Aggregate in SELECT
table employees |> select sum(salary) as total_salary;

-- Aggregate with GROUP BY
table orders |> select customer_id, count(*) as order_count group by customer_id;

-- Chained operations
table data |> where status = 'active' |> select sum(value) as total;

### Why are the changes needed?

By lifting this restriction (with an opt-out mechanism), we make the SQL pipe operator syntax more intuitive while maintaining backwards compatibility.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?

**Yes**, but it is **backwards compatible**:

- **Previously failing queries now succeed**: Queries using aggregate functions in `|> SELECT` will now work instead of throwing `PIPE_OPERATOR_CONTAINS_AGGREGATE_FUNCTION` errors
- **All previously succeeding queries continue to work**: No regression; queries using `|> AGGREGATE` or non-aggregate pipe operators are unaffected

**Backwards Compatibility Guarantee:**
- ✅ No queries that worked before will break
- ✅ Only queries that previously failed will now succeed

### How was this patch tested?

1. **Unit Tests**: Added comprehensive test coverage in `pipe-operators.sql`:
   - Positive tests: aggregates in SELECT, with WHERE, with chaining, with GROUP BY
   - Negative tests: aggregates in WHERE (still fails as expected)
   - Regression tests: verified `|> AGGREGATE` still works correctly

2. **Golden Files**: Regenerated and verified `pipe-operators.sql.out` and analyzer results

3. **Test Execution**: All tests pass successfully:

### Was this patch authored or co-authored using generative AI tooling?

Yes, `claude-4.5-sonnet` with manual editing and approval.
