Merges two {@link Schema} instances or returns {@code null}.
<p>
The two schemas are merged if they are the same type. Records are merged
if the two records have the same name or have no names but have a
significant number of shared fields.
<p>
@see {@link #mergeOrUnion} to return a union when a merge is not possible.

@param left a {@code Schema}
