/// Spark-compatible `encode` expression.

/// Binary input is interpreted as UTF-8 with lossy conversion (invalid bytes become U+FFFD).
///
/// # Target Spark version
/// Emulates Spark 3.5 semantics:
/// - Accepts canonical charset names and common aliases (`UTF8`, `LATIN1`,
/// `ISO88591`, `ASCII`, `UTF-32BE`, etc.).
/// - Unmappable characters (non-ASCII in `US-ASCII`, code points above
/// `U+00FF` in `ISO-8859-1`) are silently replaced with `?`.
/// - `UTF-32` is an alias for `UTF-32BE` (no BOM), matching both Spark 3.5
/// and Spark 4.1.
///
/// # Spark 4.0 differences (not implemented)
/// Spark 4.0 tightened `encode` in two ways, each gated by a `spark.sql.legacy.*`
/// config that can restore the 3.5 behavior:
///
/// - Charset whitelist — rejects aliases with `INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE.CHARSET`.
/// Controlled by `spark.sql.legacy.javaCharsets`.
/// - Unmappable characters — raises `MALFORMED_CHARACTER_CODING`.
/// Controlled by `spark.sql.legacy.codingErrorAction`.
///
/// TODO: wire both configs so Spark 4.0 behavior can be selected at runtime.

Spark also supports UTF-32. It would be worth adding a comment here explaining why this isn't or can't be supported.

  arguments = """
    Arguments:
      * str - a string expression
      * charset - one of the charsets 'US-ASCII', 'ISO-8859-1', 'UTF-8', 'UTF-16BE', 'UTF-16LE', 'UTF-16', 'UTF-32' to encode `str` into a BINARY. It is case insensitive.

I missed adding support for UTF-32, I've added it now with respective tests.
