Description

Adds support for AVG on queries that need to be sharded. We can't just send down AVG to each shard and average these together. We need to turn AVG into SUM/COUNT, which is easy to shard.

Just for my understanding, supporting this would require loading all the distinct values from the shard, and then perform the avg calculation on the vtgate layer.

I'm not sure. Have not spent enough time thinking about it to come up with a solution, which is why I just fail here.

We should add logic to compact two projections into a single one. Not part of this PR, just commenting for future reference

Shouldn't that be sum(0) as sum(foo)? Maybe its just a display thing
