### Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? This job in Ballista fails: ```rust let avro_file = "gs://..."; let metadata_df = ctx .read_avro(avro_file, AvroReadOptions::default()) .await? .select(vec![col("id"), col("nested_array")])? .unnest_column("nested_array")? ``` ``` Error: DataFusionError(Internal("failed to serialize logical plan: Internal(\"LogicalPlan serde is not yet implemented for Unnest\")")) ``` Due to the lack of ProtoBuf serialisation here - https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/datafusion/proto/src/logical_plan/mod.rs#L1527-L1529 ### Describe the solution you'd like ProtoBuf Serialisation would be added so that Unnest will be usable in Ballista jobs. ### Describe alternatives you've considered I also couldn't get taking just the head to work: ```rust let metadata_df = ctx .read_avro(avro_file, AvroReadOptions::default()) .await? .select(vec![ col("id"), col("nested_array") .index(lit(1)) // Note index starts at 1 .field("array_id_1") .alias("array_id_1"), col("nested_array") .index(lit(1)) .field("array_id_2") .alias("array_id_2"), ])?; ``` which gave: ``` Error: DataFusionError(Plan("Only ints are valid as an indexed field in a list")) ``` But really unnesting support is needed anyway. ### Additional context _No response_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
