Fix RuntimeError: Sharding is ambiguous for this dataset

This PR fixes the RuntimeError: Sharding is ambiguous for this dataset.

The error for ambiguous sharding will be raised only if num_proc > 1.

Fix #5415, fix #5414.
Fix https://huggingface.co/datasets/ami/discussions/3.

Comments:
_The documentation is not available anymore as the PR was closed or merged._

By the way, do we know how many datasets are impacted by this issue?

Maybe we should do a patch release with this fix.
