fix(node): handle null values in nullable boolean fields (#2657)

### Solution
Added special handling in `makeVector` function for boolean arrays where
all values are null. The fix creates a proper null bitmap using
`makeData` and `arrowMakeVector` instead of relying on Apache Arrow's
`vectorFromArray` which doesn't handle this edge case correctly.

fixes: #2644

### Changes
- Added null value detection for boolean types in `makeVector` function
- Creates proper Arrow data structure with null bitmap when all boolean
values are null
- Preserves existing behavior for non-null boolean values and other data
types

- Fixes the boolean null value bug while maintaining backward
compatibility.
