This PR changes the implementation of "concat_columns" for lazy and eager dataframes.
Before this we were doing a join of a temporary column which consumes a lot of memory and is slower than concatenating each column of the DFs.
There is a small change in behaviour for lazy frames, causing frames of different sizes to be merged with
nil
values for the smaller columns.Closes #937
