Review Comment:
This is the probably most interesting part of this change. Here, we simply
use the output type of the expression to determine what the target type of the
type cast is.
There is a similar piece of code in the `from_json` function which takes an
expression as the second parameter for the schema, but evaluates it to string
and then parses the string into the type.
