Define an async trait
UdfContext
that users can implement in their UDF definition. The struct can store shared resources used by each invocation of the UDF, like a database connection. An Arc pointer to the context is passed as the first argument to the UDF.Here's how the example async udf from #483 can be modified to use the context:
Note that the struct that implements
UdfContext
must be calledContext
