tokoko opened a new issue, #49792:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/49792

   ### Describe the enhancement requested
   
   The `SqlInfo` enum in `FlightSql.proto` already captures a useful slice of 
SQL dialect metadata (identifier quoting, null ordering default, supported 
grammar, etc.), but leaves several axes uncovered that clients routinely need 
when compiling SQL for a specific backend. Although it's unrealistic to 
describe entire dialect grammar with sqlinfo flags, the goal is to expose just 
enough flags that will allow query engines to generate correct pushdown sql 
queries (predicate pushdown, projection pushdown, ...). Since adbc also adopts 
the same SqlInfo flags in it's spec the changes naturally apply to both flight 
sql and adbc.
   
   The immediate use case for these particular flags is to enable adbc data 
source (apache/spark#54603) in spark w/o having to pre-configure dialects in 
spark code like it's currently done with jdbc. The necessary identified codes 
so far are:
   - `SQL_LIMIT_OFFSET_SYNTAX`
   - `SQL_NULLS_ORDERING_SYNTAX`
   - `SQL_BOOLEAN_LITERAL_SYNTAX`
   - `SQL_DATETIME_LITERAL_SYNTAX`
   
   ### Component(s)
   
   Format, C++
