Description

### What would you like to happen?

As part of normalizing user type hints, we should check if the type can be a RowTypeConstraint (i.e. a schema can be inferred). This would effectively opt-in users of those type hints to using SchemaCoder, so we should evaluate performance (vs. FastPrimitivesCoder/PickleCoder) before doing this.
