[SPARK-12526][SPARKR] ifelse, when, otherwise` unable to take Column as value

`ifelse`, `when`, `otherwise` is unable to take `Column` typed S4 object as values.

For example:
```r
ifelse(lit(1) == lit(1), lit(2), lit(3))
ifelse(df$mpg > 0, df$mpg, 0)
```
will both fail with
```r
attempt to replicate an object of type 'environment'
```

The PR replaces `ifelse` calls with `if ... else ...` inside the function implementations to avoid attempt to vectorize(i.e. `rep()`). It remains to be discussed whether we should instead support vectorization in these functions for consistency because `ifelse` in base R is vectorized but I cannot foresee any scenarios these functions will want to be vectorized in SparkR.

For reference, added test cases which trigger failures:
```r
. Error: when(), otherwise() and ifelse() with column on a DataFrame ----------
error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'collect':
  error in evaluating the argument 'col' in selecting a method for function 'select':
  attempt to replicate an object of type 'environment'
Calls: when -> when -> ifelse -> ifelse

1: withCallingHandlers(eval(code, new_test_environment), error = capture_calls, message = function(c) invokeRestart("muffleMessage"))
2: eval(code, new_test_environment)
3: eval(expr, envir, enclos)
4: expect_equal(collect(select(df, when(df$a > 1 & df$b > 2, lit(1))))[, 1], c(NA, 1)) at test_sparkSQL.R:1126
5: expect_that(object, equals(expected, label = expected.label, ...), info = info, label = label)
6: condition(object)
7: compare(actual, expected, ...)
8: collect(select(df, when(df$a > 1 & df$b > 2, lit(1))))
Error: Test failures
Execution halted
