#20317 improved inference of unique, but problematic cases still arise for containers with known but abstract eltypes. Here, we short-circuit the `typejoin` when the return type is determined by the element type of the input container. For `unique(f, itr)`, this commit also allows the caller to supply `seen::Set` to circumvent the inference challenges.

JuliaLang/julia#36280 introduced the ability to pre-allocate the container used to track values of `f.(itr)` in `unique(f, itr)`. Particularly for containers with `Union` elements, this circumvents significant inference problems. Related: JuliaLang/julia#36454
