Review Comment:
We should make the behavior the same as `CastTransformFunction` (support
`INT` and `VARCHAR`). We can make a switch case here for the target data type
similar to how we handle the types in `CastTransformFunction`

Review Comment:
(minor) both arguments won't be `null` here since the function is not
annotated as `nullableParameters`
