Title: Fallback on dataset script if user wants to load default config
State: closed

Right now this code is failing on `main`:

```python
load_dataset("openbookqa")
```

This is because it tries to load the dataset from the Parquet export but the dataset has multiple configurations and the Parquet export doesn't know which one is the default one.

I fixed this by simply falling back on using the dataset script (which tells the user to pass `trust_remote_code=True`):

```python
load_dataset("openbookqa", trust_remote_code=True)
```

Note that if the user happened to specify a config name I don't fall back on the script since we can use the Parquet export in this case (no need to know which config is the default)


```python
load_dataset("openbookqa", "main")
```

Comments: The docs for this PR live [here](https://moon-ci-docs.huggingface.co/docs/datasets/pr_6498). All of your documentation changes will be reflected on that endpoint. The docs are available until 30 days after the last update.> I was just thinking: what if the user does not pass a config name and the dataset has only a config with a name different from "default"?

You mean if there is a DEFAULT_CONFIG_NAME defined in the script but the dataset only has one configuration ? We can't easily get the number of configs without running the python code so I don't think we can support detect this case
Most datasets with a script don't define DEFAULT_CONFIG_NAME if there is only one configuration anyway.

So there is no issue e.g. for `squad`> I was trying to mean the case where DEFAULT_CONFIG_NAME is None but there is only a single config in BUILDER_CONFIGS, with a name different from "default".

In this case we can detect if "DEFAULT_CONFIG_NAME" is not mentioned and use the Parquet export. If it is mentioned (and maybe it is set to None or to the single config) I consider that it may have multiple configs and fall back on using the script... but the user does not pass the config name.In this case we load the single configuration (this is how a DatasetBuilder works)see
