* fix(query): keep INSERT timestamp conversion out of the source query

Interpreting an INSERT's string timestamps used to work by pushing the
conversion down into the source query, which changed what that query
means. Two consequences:

- Pushing through a UNION's DISTINCT moved the dedup key from the raw
  strings to parsed instants, so rows spelling the same instant
  differently collapsed into one. On an append-only table that is a
  silently dropped row.
- A UNION branch that needed no conversion (a NULL, or an explicit cast)
  made the whole column give up, leaving sibling branches on UTC while
  the rest of the row used the session timezone.

Convert at the assignment instead, by routing its cast through a
timezone-carrying timestamp type and back. Arrow applies the timezone
when a cast target carries one, and stripping it afterwards preserves
the value. The source query is no longer touched, so both cases go away
and the tree-walking rewrite (roughly 160 lines) is deleted.

The rewrite reads source types, so it now runs TypeCoercion first: a
UNION still carries its loose per-branch schema before coercion, and
retargeting a cast whose input later becomes a timestamp would shift the
value rather than reinterpret it.

* fix(query): address review on INSERT assignment rewrite

- Clone the input `Arc` instead of the whole subtree, and only rebuild it
  when a `Values` row actually changes.
- Defer cloning the cast source until the literal-folding path has been
  ruled out.
- Move the UTC check onto `Timezone::is_utc`, replacing a bare string
  compare.
- Cover a prepared `INSERT ... VALUES (?)`: an untyped placeholder types
  as `Null`, so the assignment cast is left for parameter substitution.
