I don't think having the end location in this case would help -- when it
comes to ParseFuncOrColumn, looks like for coerce functions it just
replaces the original FuncCall with the argument expression. Meaning
that when jumbling we have only the coerce argument expression (Const),
which ends before the closing brace, not the parent expression.
Maybe it would be possible to address thins in not too complicated way
in fill_in_constant_lengths, since it already operates with parsed
tokens.
