Ngone51 and cloud-fan [SPARK-30098][SQL] Use default datasource as provider for CREATE TABL…
…E syntax

### What changes were proposed in this pull request?

In this PR, we propose to use the value of `spark.sql.source.default` as the provider for `CREATE TABLE` syntax instead of `hive` in Spark 3.0.

And to help the migration, we introduce a legacy conf `spark.sql.legacy.respectHiveDefaultProvider.enabled` and set its default to `false`.

### Why are the changes needed?

1. Currently, `CREATE TABLE` syntax use hive provider to create table while `DataFrameWriter.saveAsTable` API using the value of `spark.sql.source.default` as a provider to create table. It would be better to make them consistent.

2. User may gets confused in some cases. For example:

```
CREATE TABLE t1 (c1 INT) USING PARQUET;
CREATE TABLE t2 (c1 INT);
```

In these two DDLs, use may think that `t2` should also use parquet as default provider since Spark always advertise parquet as the default format. However, it's hive in this case.

On the other hand, if we omit the USING clause in a CTAS statement, we do pick parquet by default if `spark.sql.hive.convertCATS=true`:

```
CREATE TABLE t3 USING PARQUET AS SELECT 1 AS VALUE;
CREATE TABLE t4 AS SELECT 1 AS VALUE;
```
And these two cases together can be really confusing.

3. Now, Spark SQL is very independent and popular. We do not need to be fully consistent with Hive's behavior.

### Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?

Yes, before this PR, using `CREATE TABLE` syntax will use hive provider. But now, it use the value of `spark.sql.source.default` as its provider.

### How was this patch tested?

Added tests in `DDLParserSuite` and `HiveDDlSuite`.

Closes #26736 from Ngone51/dev-create-table-using-parquet-by-default.

README.md

Apache Spark

Spark is a unified analytics engine for large-scale data processing. It provides high-level APIs in Scala, Java, Python, and R, and an optimized engine that supports general computation graphs for data analysis. It also supports a rich set of higher-level tools including Spark SQL for SQL and DataFrames, MLlib for machine learning, GraphX for graph processing, and Structured Streaming for stream processing.

Online Documentation

You can find the latest Spark documentation, including a programming guide, on the project web page. This README file only contains basic setup instructions.

Building Spark

Spark is built using Apache Maven. To build Spark and its example programs, run:

./build/mvn -DskipTests clean package

(You do not need to do this if you downloaded a pre-built package.)

You can build Spark using more than one thread by using the -T option with Maven, see "Parallel builds in Maven 3". More detailed documentation is available from the project site, at "Building Spark".

For general development tips, including info on developing Spark using an IDE, see "Useful Developer Tools".

Interactive Scala Shell

The easiest way to start using Spark is through the Scala shell:

./bin/spark-shell

Try the following command, which should return 1,000,000,000:

scala> spark.range(1000 * 1000 * 1000).count()

Interactive Python Shell

Alternatively, if you prefer Python, you can use the Python shell:

./bin/pyspark

And run the following command, which should also return 1,000,000,000:

>>> spark.range(1000 * 1000 * 1000).count()

Example Programs

Spark also comes with several sample programs in the examples directory. To run one of them, use ./bin/run-example <class> [params]. For example:

./bin/run-example SparkPi

will run the Pi example locally.

You can set the MASTER environment variable when running examples to submit examples to a cluster. This can be a mesos:// or spark:// URL, "yarn" to run on YARN, and "local" to run locally with one thread, or "local[N]" to run locally with N threads. You can also use an abbreviated class name if the class is in the examples package. For instance:

MASTER=spark://host:7077 ./bin/run-example SparkPi

Many of the example programs print usage help if no params are given.

Running Tests

Testing first requires building Spark. Once Spark is built, tests can be run using:

./dev/run-tests

Please see the guidance on how to run tests for a module, or individual tests.

There is also a Kubernetes integration test, see resource-managers/kubernetes/integration-tests/README.md

A Note About Hadoop Versions

Spark uses the Hadoop core library to talk to HDFS and other Hadoop-supported storage systems. Because the protocols have changed in different versions of Hadoop, you must build Spark against the same version that your cluster runs.

Please refer to the build documentation at "Specifying the Hadoop Version and Enabling YARN" for detailed guidance on building for a particular distribution of Hadoop, including building for particular Hive and Hive Thriftserver distributions.

Configuration

Please refer to the Configuration Guide in the online documentation for an overview on how to configure Spark.
