[SPARK-14137] [SPARK-14150] [SQL] Infer IsNotNull constraints from non-nullable attributes

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

This PR adds support for automatically inferring `IsNotNull` constraints from any non-nullable attributes that are part of an operator's output. This also fixes the issue that causes the optimizer to hit the maximum number of iterations for certain queries in #11828.

## How was this patch tested?

Unit test in `ConstraintPropagationSuite`

Author: Sameer Agarwal <[email protected]>

Closes #11953 from sameeragarwal/infer-isnotnull.
