Title: Specifying an exisiting folder in download_and_prepare deletes everything in it
State: open
Labels: description: Something isn't working
name: bug

## Describe the bug
The builder correctly creates the `output_dir` folder if it doesn't exist, but if the folder exists everything within it is deleted. Specifying `"."` as the `output_dir` deletes everything in your current dir but also leads to **another bug** whose traceback is the following:

```
                          Traceback (most recent call last)
Input In [11], in <cell line: 1>()
----> 1 rotten_tomatoes_builder.download_and_prepare(output_dir=".", max_shard_size="200MB", file_format="parquet")

OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument: '/home/christopher/BIGSCIENCE/.'
``` 

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
rotten_tomatoes_builder = load_dataset_builder("rotten_tomatoes")
rotten_tomatoes_builder.download_and_prepare(output_dir="./test_folder", max_shard_size="200MB", file_format="parquet")
```
If `test_folder` contains any files they will all be deleted
 
## Expected results
Either a warning that all files will be deleted, but preferably that they not be deleted at all.

## Actual results
N/A

cc @lhoestq 

Thanks for reporting, @cakiki.

I would say the deletion of the dir is an expected behavior though...

`dask.to_parquet` has an "overwrite" parameter and default is `False`, we could also have something similar

Thank you both for your feedback!

@albertvillanova I think I might have have the wrong mental model of what the function was meant to do. I thought it would be an API similar to the pandas `to_XX` write methods (Like the one @lhoestq mentions) so I just assumed it would download the dataframe to whichever folder I specififed (`"./"` in my case) so I could load it into a dask dataframe. I absolutely did not expect it to delete everything in my local directory, including the script where I called it from :smile: 

I think Quentin's proposed solution sounds like a reasonable feature!

actually there's already a `download_mode` parameter that defaults to `REUSE_DATASET_IF_EXISTS` - so I guess it's just a matter of not deleting files unrelated to the dataset, and to overwrite existing dataset files if the download mode is `REUSE_CACHE_IF_EXISTS` or `FORCE_REDOWNLOAD`
