Cheng Lian 1d542785b9 [SPARK-13244][SQL] Migrates DataFrame to Dataset
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

This PR unifies DataFrame and Dataset by migrating existing DataFrame operations to Dataset and make `DataFrame` a type alias of `Dataset[Row]`.

Most Scala code changes are source compatible, but Java API is broken as Java knows nothing about Scala type alias (mostly replacing `DataFrame` with `Dataset<Row>`).

There are several noticeable API changes related to those returning arrays:

1.  `collect`/`take`

    -   Old APIs in class `DataFrame`:

        ```scala
        def collect(): Array[Row]
        def take(n: Int): Array[Row]
        ```

    -   New APIs in class `Dataset[T]`:

        ```scala
        def collect(): Array[T]
        def take(n: Int): Array[T]

        def collectRows(): Array[Row]
        def takeRows(n: Int): Array[Row]
        ```

    Two specialized methods `collectRows` and `takeRows` are added because Java doesn't support returning generic arrays. Thus, for example, `DataFrame.collect(): Array[T]` actually returns `Object` instead of `Array<T>` from Java side.

    Normally, Java users may fall back to `collectAsList` and `takeAsList`.  The two new specialized versions are added to avoid performance regression in ML related code (but maybe I'm wrong and they are not necessary here).

1.  `randomSplit`

    -   Old APIs in class `DataFrame`:

        ```scala
        def randomSplit(weights: Array[Double], seed: Long): Array[DataFrame]
        def randomSplit(weights: Array[Double]): Array[DataFrame]
        ```

    -   New APIs in class `Dataset[T]`:

        ```scala
        def randomSplit(weights: Array[Double], seed: Long): Array[Dataset[T]]
        def randomSplit(weights: Array[Double]): Array[Dataset[T]]
        ```

    Similar problem as above, but hasn't been addressed for Java API yet.  We can probably add `randomSplitAsList` to fix this one.

1.  `groupBy`

    Some original `DataFrame.groupBy` methods have conflicting signature with original `Dataset.groupBy` methods.  To distinguish these two, typed `Dataset.groupBy` methods are renamed to `groupByKey`.

Other noticeable changes:

1.  Dataset always do eager analysis now

    We used to support disabling DataFrame eager analysis to help reporting partially analyzed malformed logical plan on analysis failure.  However, Dataset encoders requires eager analysi during Dataset construction.  To preserve the error reporting feature, `AnalysisException` now takes an extra `Option[LogicalPlan]` argument to hold the partially analyzed plan, so that we can check the plan tree when reporting test failures.  This plan is passed by `QueryExecution.assertAnalyzed`.

## How was this patch tested?

Existing tests do the work.

## TODO

- [ ] Fix all tests
- [ ] Re-enable MiMA check
- [ ] Update ScalaDoc (`since`, `group`, and example code)
