    Description

      When you try and run a query such as

      select AVG(ts_colum) from t;
      

      where ts_column has `DataType::Timestamp` type, you get a pretty unintelligible error message

      "Coercion from [Timestamp(Nanosecond, None)] to the signature Uniform(1, [Int8, Int16, Int32, Int64, UInt8, UInt16, UInt32, UInt64, Float32, Float64]) failed."

      This error should be improved to say something more like "AVG is not supported for

      {datatype}

      try an explicit cast."
