   ## Which issue does this PR close?
   
   <!--
   We generally require a GitHub issue to be filed for all bug fixes and 
enhancements and this helps us generate change logs for our releases. You can 
link an issue to this PR using the GitHub syntax. For example `Closes #123` 
indicates that this PR will close issue #123.

   ## Rationale for this change
   
   <!--
    Why are you proposing this change? If this is already explained clearly in 
the issue then this section is not needed.
    Explaining clearly why changes are proposed helps reviewers understand your 
changes and offer better suggestions for fixes.  
   
   Please explain the problem you are trying to solve in terms of the 
user-visible
   behavior, rather than the implementation.
   
   For example, "The code in `foo.rs` doesn't handle nulls" is a symptom of the
   implementation. "COUNT(DISTINCT) returns wrong results when the column 
contains
   nulls" is the user-visible problem.
   -->
   
   `AggregateStream` finalizes with `RecordBatch::try_new`, which infers the 
row count from the first column. A no-grouping aggregate with no aggregate 
expressions has neither columns nor a non-empty schema, so Arrow's 
`RecordBatch` rejects the batch with "must either specify a row count or at 
least one column" instead of emitting the single empty row the plan describes.
   
   A no-grouping aggregate always finalizes to exactly one row, and every 
column produced by `finalize_aggregation` is a length-1 array.
   
   `optimize_projections` rewrites this shape into `EmptyRelation { 
produce_one_row: true }`, so SQL never reaches it; callers like Comet that 
build physical plans directly do.
   
   ## What changes are included in this PR?
   
   <!--
   There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here, but it is 
sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR.

   ## What is the testing strategy for this PR?
   
   <!--
   We typically require tests for all PRs in order to:
   1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes
   2. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code
   
   Briefly describe how this PR is tested, and point to the specific tests you 
added. For example: 'This new feature is covered by the `sqllogictest` cases 
added in `foo.slt`'.
   
   If this PR does not add tests, explain why. For example, if the change is 
already covered by existing tests, please mention it.
   
   You should also check the `codecov` bot reply on this PR to confirm the 
changed code is exercised.

   ## Are there any user-facing changes?
   
   <!--
   If there are user-facing changes then we may require documentation to be 
updated before approving the PR.
   
   If there are any breaking changes to public APIs, please add the `api 
change` label.
