Description

Enhancement

For now, our implementation of string functions in tiflash doesn't handle maxAllowedPacket at all. But almost all string functions in tidb handle it explicitly(check concat)

We need to handle it in a common function.

Research direction

Start with the referenced TiDB concat implementation in builtin_string.go, then locate the corresponding string-function code in TiFlash. Determine how maxAllowedPacket should be handled through a shared function; done means string functions consistently enforce that limit.
