Support create lists column from a list_scalar

[isVoid]

This PR adds support to make_column_from_scalar for list_scalar. For 0-length columns, a well-formed LIST type column, whose child column has the same column hierarchy to the row data stored in list_scalar is returned.

Example:

slr.data = [1, 2, 3] // An integer list of 1, 2, 3, `data` is an INT column
make_column_from_scalar(s, 2) // List<int> column: {[1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3]}, whose child column is an `INT` column.

slr.data = [[1, 2], [3]] // A list of integer lists, `data` is a List<int> column
make_column_from_scalar(s, 0) // Well formed, 0-length List<List<int>> column, whose child column is a List<int> column.

Closes #8088

I think stream and MR need to be used explicitly. Detail APIs should call detail APIs.

[devavret]

You can check in the beginning whether the size == 1 and make a mr that's either the default or the one passed in the arguments. Then you can use the same mr thoughout and avoid duplicating code.
