[SPARK-22961][REGRESSION] Constant columns should generate QueryPlanC…

…onstraints

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

#19201 introduced the following regression: given something like `df.withColumn("c", lit(2))`, we're no longer picking up `c === 2` as a constraint and infer filters from it when joins are involved, which may lead to noticeable performance degradation.

This patch re-enables this optimization by picking up Aliases of Literals in Projection lists as constraints and making sure they're not treated as aliased columns.

## How was this patch tested?

Unit test was added.
