[5.2.x] Fixed #36117 -- Raised ValueError when providing composite expressions to case / when.

Remove redundant Case and When.resolve_expression to delegate composite
expression support to BaseExpression.

Thanks Jacob Tyler Walls for the report and test.

Backport of 00c690efbc0b10f67924687f24a7b30397bf47d9 from main.
