Review Comment:
   Agreed. `If` goes through `CollationTypeCoercion.collateToSingleType` and 
was widening `VARCHAR(n) COLLATE UNICODE_CI` inside the rebuilt struct. 
`stringLengthCheck` now uses `CaseWhen` for the null guard 
(`nullSafeRebuiltStruct`), which has the same-type skip. Restored `COLLATE 
UNICODE_CI` on the Hive nested struct and added a no-SerDe variant in 
`SparkScriptTransformationSuite`.
