References to other Issues or PRs
Partially fixes #26478: this issue has multiple steps to be taken, this addresses the first one.
Brief description of what is fixed or changed
A __add__ method is implemented in both BaseVectorField and Differential classes, that checks type constraint before delegating sum over to Add class.
Other comments
I would like a feedback on the way I implemented this change. In particular, I am uncertain whether to follow this path with the subsequent steps or write a new class to handle tensor product sum, similarly to MatrixExpr and MatrixAdd.
