   Expand `can_cast_types` to support struct inner types casting. Currently it's not possible to cast this:
   
   `"Cannot cast file schema field struct of type Struct([Field { name: \"x\", data_type: Int64, nullable: true, dict_id: 0, dict_is_ordered: false, metadata: {} }, Field { name: \"y\", data_type: LargeUtf8, nullable: true, dict_id: 0, dict_is_ordered: false, metadata: {} }]) to table schema field of type Struct([Field { name: \"x\", data_type: Int64, nullable: true, dict_id: 0, dict_is_ordered: false, metadata: {} }, Field { name: \"y\", data_type: Utf8, nullable: true, dict_id: 0, dict_is_ordered: false, metadata: {} }])"
   `
