Description
Surprisingly a query which works just fine in influxdb fails in kapacitor:
```
var test = batch
|query('''
SELECT non_negative_difference(mean("value")) AS "diff"
FROM "telegraf"."autogen"."test"
''')
.period(5m)
.every(1m)
.groupBy(time(5m), *)
```
Results in:
```
`failed to parse InfluxQL query: expected field argument in non_negative_difference()`
```
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the reported Kapacitor batch query and compare its parsing of non_negative_difference(mean("value")) with the equivalent query accepted by InfluxDB. Locate the InfluxQL parsing path, then add coverage for the reported query and verify that it parses successfully without breaking existing function handling.
