Description

We can expose some interesting retrieval patterns and likely reduce some internal code volume by taking advantage of the new NEAREST BY join keyword.

Research direction

Start by reading the DuckDB NEAREST BY join proposal at https://github.com/duckdb/duckdb/pull/24137, then inspect raghilda's retrieval patterns and internal code that could use it. Done means the relevant retrieval patterns are exposed with the new join and the duplicated internal code is reduced, with the existing tests still passing.
