Example:

*list<auto> rows = table.selectRows(("where": ("name": op_ceq("other_name")) + wop_or(("type": "C", "validation_flag": op_ne(NULL)), ("expiration_date": op_ge(date)))));

Generates:

select * from schema.table where name = other_name and ((type = %v and validation flag is not null) or (expiration_date >= %v))

Parameters

h1	the first hash of expressions to combine with `"or"` logic
h2	the second hash of expressions to combine with `"or"` logic
...	remaining expressions to combine with `"or"` logic

Returns: a hash with an OperatorInfo hash value keyed by a fake column name ("_OR_" with a numeric prefix for uniqueness) for use in a where operation description hash for use in where clauses
