coerced_from in functions.rs seems to be missing Utf8View in some cases #13363
Description
Describe the bug
:(
Timestamp(TimeUnit::Nanosecond, None),
Null | Timestamp(_, None) | Date32 | Utf8 | LargeUtf8,
) => Some(type_into.clone()),
(Interval(_), Utf8 | LargeUtf8) => Some(type_into.clone()),
// We can go into a Utf8View from a Utf8 or LargeUtf8
(Utf8View, Utf8 | LargeUtf8 | Null) => Some(type_into.clone()),
// Any type can be coerced into strings
(Utf8 | LargeUtf8, _) => Some(type_into.clone()),I can't see a reason why right now that timestamp or interval should not be a target for Utf8View. As well, there shouldn't be a reason why any type can't be coerced into Utf8View.
To Reproduce
No response
Expected behavior
Utf8View is supported as a source for coercion for Timestamp and Interval, and as a target for coercion for all types.

Instead of maintaining this function, we should change function that rely on
