[BUG] ScanJson and JsonToStructs cannot handle nested empty arrays/structs

[revans2]

Describe the bug
This is with #10575

 Seq("""{"a":[]}""").toDF("json").repartition(1).selectExpr("from_json(json, 'a array<string>')").show()

results in an error like.

Caused by: java.lang.AssertionError: Type conversion is not allowed from STRUCT(LIST(INT8)) to StructType(StructField(a,ArrayType(StringType,true),true)) expected STRUCT(LIST(STRING))

If assertions are enabled.

Similarly

Seq("""{"a":1,"b":"","c":[]}""").toDF("json").repartition(1).selectExpr("from_json(json, 'a int, b string, c array<string>')").show()

throws

Caused by: java.lang.AssertionError: Type conversion is not allowed from STRUCT(INT32,STRING,LIST(INT8)) to StructType(StructField(a,IntegerType,true),StructField(b,StringType,true),StructField(c,ArrayType(StringType,true),true)) expected STRUCT(INT32,STRING,LIST(STRING))

It looks like CUDF ignores our request that the returned value be a LIST(STRING) and returns a LIST(INT8) instead. This feels like a bug in CUDF, but we can probably work around it if we need to. But it is not going to be super simple.

I should add that an empty struct results in a different error.

Seq("""{"a":1,"b":"","c":{}}""").toDF("json").repartition(1).selectExpr("from_json(json, 'a int, b string, c struct<a string>')").show()

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

This looks almost identical to reading an list with only empty top level structs.
