Table: Delivery
+-----------------------------+---------+
| Column Name | Type |
+-----------------------------+---------+
| delivery_id | int |
| customer_id | int |
| order_date | date |
| customer_pref_delivery_date | date |
+-----------------------------+---------+
delivery_id is the column of unique values of this table.
The table holds information about food delivery to customers that make orders at some date and specify a preferred delivery date (on the same order date or after it).
If the customer's preferred delivery date is the same as the order date, then the order is called immediate; otherwise, it is called scheduled.
The first order of a customer is the order with the earliest order date that the customer made. It is guaranteed that a customer has precisely one first order.
Write a solution to find the percentage of immediate orders in the first orders of all customers, rounded to 2 decimal places.
The result format is in the following example.

# delivery_id is the column of unique values of this table.
# The table holds information about food delivery to customers that make orders at some date and specify a preferred delivery date (on the same order date or after it).
# If the customer's preferred delivery date is the same as the order date, then the order is called immediate; otherwise, it is called scheduled.
# The first order of a customer is the order with the earliest order date that the customer made. It is guaranteed that a customer has precisely one first order.
# Write a solution to find the percentage of immediate orders in the first orders of all customers, rounded to 2 decimal places.
# The result format is in the following example.
# Example 1:
# Input:
# Delivery table:
# +-------------+-------------+------------+-----------------------------+
# | delivery_id | customer_id | order_date | customer_pref_delivery_date |
# +-------------+-------------+------------+-----------------------------+
# | 1 | 1 | 2019-08-01 | 2019-08-02 |
# | 2 | 2 | 2019-08-02 | 2019-08-02 |
# | 3 | 1 | 2019-08-11 | 2019-08-12 |

# | 6 | 2 | 2019-08-11 | 2019-08-13 |
# | 7 | 4 | 2019-08-09 | 2019-08-09 |
# +-------------+-------------+------------+-----------------------------+
# Output:
# +----------------------+
# | immediate_percentage |
# +----------------------+
# | 50.00 |
# +----------------------+
# Explanation:
# The customer id 1 has a first order with delivery id 1 and it is scheduled.
# The customer id 2 has a first order with delivery id 2 and it is immediate.
# The customer id 3 has a first order with delivery id 5 and it is scheduled.
# The customer id 4 has a first order with delivery id 7 and it is immediate.
# Hence, half the customers have immediate first orders.
