…ecedence Add a withParentheses parameter (default true) to union(), unionAll(), intersect(), and except() extension functions in both JDBC and R2DBC modules. When true, wraps any preceding set operation in parentheses so the DSL chain order matches the SQL evaluation order. Also fixes Except.copy() which incorrectly returned Intersect.

When chaining
query1.union(query2).intersect(query3), SQL operator precedence causes INTERSECT to bind tighter than UNION, producing incorrect results. This adds parenthesization so the DSL chain order is respected:(SELECT 1 UNION SELECT 2) INTERSECT SELECT 3.Approach suggested by @chantal-loncle in EXPOSED-987.
