Description

### What happens?

I believe this behavior is a bug and not actually intended, but I may be wrong.

`duckdb.values([(10, 'A'), (20, 'B')])` produces a table with one row of VARCHAR[] values, instead of a table with two rows and two columns with different types.

Other alternatives like:

- `duckdb.values((10, 'A'), (20, 'B'))`
- `duckdb.values("(10, 'A'), (20, 'B')")`

just fail.

### To Reproduce

```
duckdb.values([(10, 'A'), (20, 'B')]).df()
```
