> UnionDataset allows Fragments of multiple schemas and differing file formats to be scanned together as a single Dataset. This is useful functionality but makes the Dataset interface somewhat difficult to reason about since it must be general enough to accommodate UnionDataset.
> After ARROW-11928 it will probably be more natural to support unioning of datasets through a subclass of ExecNode. Reconciliation of differing schemas can then be trivially handled by a full ProjectNode.
> Note this would obviate both ARROW-11001 and ARROW-11749. In addition, Dataset could be simplified to a concrete class containing a set of compatibly typed/formatted Fragments.
