…spill files (apache#21293) <!-- We generally require a GitHub issue to be filed for all bug fixes and enhancements and this helps us generate change logs for our releases. You can link an issue to this PR using the GitHub syntax. For example `Closes apache#123` indicates that this PR will close issue apache#123. --> - Closes apache#21292. <!-- Why are you proposing this change? If this is already explained clearly in the issue then this section is not needed. Explaining clearly why changes are proposed helps reviewers understand your changes and offer better suggestions for fixes. --> `InProgressSpillFile` will use the first batch schema when it has no writer, which could have different nullability from the subsequent batches (e.g. due to union-ing a literal projection and a table column projection). This can then lead to a panic in `sort_batch`. `InProgressSpillFile` already has access to the canonical schema that the spill file should have (`self.spill_writer.schema()`). <!-- There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here but it is sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR. --> Single line fix: instead of using the first batch schema for the spill file schema, use the spill_writer's schema instead. The rest of the changes are two new tests. <!-- We typically require tests for all PRs in order to: 1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes 2. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code If tests are not included in your PR, please explain why (for example, are they covered by existing tests)? --> Yes, two new tests are added. <!-- If there are user-facing changes then we may require documentation to be updated before approving the PR. --> <!-- If there are any breaking changes to public APIs, please add the `api change` label. -->
