Description

Addresses #15196 by applying a patch from @karthikeyann to skip the infer_column_type_kernel by forcing the mixed types column to be a string.
With this optimization, we see a significant improvement in performance. Please refer to the comment for a visualization of the results before and after applying this optimization as obtained from the JSON lines benchmarking exercise.

Benchmarks were run on A100 80GB GPU, with all combinations of normalize_single_quotes, row_selection, recovery_mode, mixed_type_as_string options being enabled/disabled.

The entire 30x slowdown was in the type inference?

Yes, the slowdown seems to be due to long string sizes when mixed types is enabled. If we enforce the column to be a string in the JSON tree parser, we can skip the type inference kernel.
