In #9409 we enabled multi-column counting. The approach taken in that PR introduces a bit of overhead by first creating a row only to check if all of the columns are non-null.
This PR fixes that technical debt. Count now takes multiple columns as its input. In order to make this work I have also added support for multiple columns in the single distinct code path.
