Incorrect dtype of object of polars into-df when numeric and null values are mixed.

[ayax79]

Describe the bug

Discovered by @maxim-uvarov

Converting to a dataframe with null and numeric values results in the dataframe column being of dtype object. Futhermore, when attempting to apply a schema, the column still of dtype object.

Ideally, the Value::Nothing types should be converted to NaN polars values when the rest of the table is numeric. Though, this could be problematic when inferring the schema.

Minimally, an error should be returned when a column cannot be created as the type provided by the schema.

How to reproduce

[[a b]; [6 2] [1 1] [1 4] [2 null]] | polars into-df --schema {a: i64, b: i64} | polars schema

Expected behavior

1. An error should occur if the column cannot be converted to the specified type in the schema
2. Convert the null values to NaN if possible.
