    [SPARK-13440][SQL] ObjectType should accept any ObjectType

    The type checking functions of `If` and `UnwrapOption` are fixed to 
eliminate spurious failures.  `UnwrapOption` was checking for an input of 
`ObjectType` but `ObjectType`'s accept function was hard coded to return 
`false`.  `If` was failing to returning a false positive in the case that the 
two options differed only by nullability.
    
    Tests added:
     -  an end-to-end regression test is added to `DatasetSuite` for the 
reported failure.
     - all the unit tests in `ExpressionEncoderSuite` are augmented to also 
confirm successful analysis.  These tests are actually what pointed out the 
additional issues with `If` resolution.
