[SPARK-23054][SQL][PYSPARK][FOLLOWUP] Use sqlType casting when casting
PythonUserDefinedType to String.
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This is a follow-up of #20246.
If the UDT in Python doesn't have its corresponding Scala UTD, cast to
string will be the raw string of the internal value, e.g.
`"org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.UnsafeArrayData@xxxxxxxx"` if the
internal type is `ArrayType`.
This pr fixes it by using its `sqlType` casting.
## How was this patch tested?
Added a test and existing tests.
