We don't need to cast the value a second time in uniqueness validations

Part of the larger refactoring to remove type casting from Arel. Since
we've already cast the value a few lines above, we don't need to re-cast
it later. We can inform Arel of this by wrapping it in an
`Arel::Nodes::Quoted`, which will no longer be required in Rails 5.1
