## Which issue does this PR close?
<!--
We generally require a GitHub issue to be filed for all bug fixes and
enhancements and this helps us generate change logs for our releases. You can
link an issue to this PR using the GitHub syntax. For example `Closes #123`
indicates that this PR will close issue #123.
-->
Closes #11742.
## Rationale for this change
Currently, in the LogicalPlan builder, we coerce the inputs of a union plan
to a common schema.
But this common schema is inaccurate because it lacks type coercion for
expressions.
For example, in #11742, the return type of the expression `nvl(v1, 0.5)` is
INT before type coercion and will become Float64 afterward.
```rust
/// The return type of `nvl` depends on the type of the first argument.
fn return_type(&self, arg_types: &[DataType]) -> Result<DataType> {
Ok(arg_types[0].clone())
}
```
The fix is to place coercion of the union after the type coercion of
expressions.
## What changes are included in this PR?
- Move coercion of union from builder to `TypeCoercion`.
- Move some union-related SQL planner tests to slt, as these tests need to
perform type coercion to achieve the same results as before.

There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here but it is
sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR.
-->
## Are these changes tested?
Yes
<!--
We typically require tests for all PRs in order to:
1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes
2. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code
If tests are not included in your PR, please explain why (for example, are
they covered by existing tests)?
-->
## Are there any user-facing changes?
Yes
`project_with_column_index` has become private. It was introduced for UNION
in #2108, and I think it should only be used internally.
<!--
If there are user-facing changes then we may require documentation to be
updated before approving the PR.

<!--
If there are any breaking changes to public APIs, please add the `api
change` label.
