In theory, this should be done in a cost-based style. Changing the way how
union combines data will reduce the parallelism.
For example, if we union 2 tables each has 5 partitions. Without this PR we
will launch 10 tasks to process the data, and locality should be easy to
satisfy. After this PR, we only launch 5 tasks, and locality is hard to meet,
we may have extra data transfer.
We should move statistics to physical plan first. cc @wzhfy
