   ### Description
   Fixes an issue that can occur when using `NestedFieldVirtualColumn` with a 
string typed output to select array elements of numeric typed arrays. The 
column type of the virtual column will report as `STRING` because it was 
specified as the type hint, but the array itself is numeric, which should not 
use a vector object selector. When used with a filter, the column processor 
will make a string matcher, but have an object selector full of numbers, 
resulting in class cast exceptions.
   
   The underlying nested column was also missing the ability to get the column 
types for array columns when an element was specified. I have added it, 
translating the array types into the element types in the resulting set 
returned from the method.
   
   The added test covers this case, and also removed some comments which were 
accidentally copied to all of the tests that were not accurate and only 
supposed to be on one of the tests.
