> [Java] UnionVector doesn't call allocateNew() when creating it's vectorType

> UnionVector uses a UINT1Vector to store the types of every value in the
> vector., but it doesn't call allocateNew() on that vector and more
> importantly zeroVector(). When we call setSafe() the 1st time (e.g. from
> PromotableVector.promoteToUnion()) it will re-allocate the vector but will
> fail to properly set it's content to 0. This can cause various failures when
> we try to access the value/type stored in the vector.
