Support Dynamic Type in toFloat64/touInt32 Functions

Support Dynamic in functions toFloat64/touInt32/etc. #72989 (Pavel Kruglov).
Support for Dynamic type in conversion functions like toFloat64 and toUInt32.

Why it matters

Adds the ability to apply conversion functions such as toFloat64 and toUInt32 directly to columns of type Dynamic. This enhancement solves the problem where these functions previously did not support Dynamic type inputs, enabling more flexible and seamless data transformations on semi-structured data.

How to use it

Users can now pass Dynamic type columns into conversion functions like toFloat64, toUInt32, and similar, just as they do with standard data types. No additional configuration or settings are required; simply use these functions in your SQL queries as usual.
