Fix JSON builder when missing keys in first row 
State: closed

Until now, the JSON builder only considered the keys present in the first element of the list:
- Either explicitly: by passing index 0 in `dataset[0].keys()`
- Or implicitly: `pa.Table.from_pylist(dataset)`, where "schema (default None): If not passed, will be inferred from the first row of the mapping values"

This PR fixes the bug by considering the union of the keys present in all the rows.


Fix #5726.
