Issue: prebuilt dataset relies on `downloads/extracted`
State: open
Author: stas00

### Describe the bug

I pre-built the dataset:
```
python -c 'import sys; from datasets import load_dataset; ds=load_dataset(sys.argv[1])' HuggingFaceM4/general-pmd-synthetic-testing
```
and it can be used just fine.

now I wipe out `downloads/extracted` and it no longer works. 
```
rm -r ~/.cache/huggingface/datasets/downloads
```
That is I can still load it:
```
python -c 'import sys; from datasets import load_dataset; ds=load_dataset(sys.argv[1])' HuggingFaceM4/general-pmd-synthetic-testing
No config specified, defaulting to: general-pmd-synthetic-testing/100.unique
Found cached dataset general-pmd-synthetic-testing (/home/stas/.cache/huggingface/datasets/HuggingFaceM4___general-pmd-synthetic-testing/100.unique/1.1.1/86bc445e3e48cb5ef79de109eb4e54ff85b318cd55c3835c4ee8f86eae33d9d2)
```
but if I try to use it:
```

``` 

Only if I wipe out the cached dir and rebuild then it starts working as `download/extracted` is back again with extracted files.


```
rm -r ~/.cache/huggingface/datasets/HuggingFaceM4___general-pmd-synthetic-testing
python -c 'import sys; from datasets import load_dataset; ds=load_dataset(sys.argv[1])' HuggingFaceM4/general-pmd-synthetic-testing
```

I think there are 2 issues here:

1. why does it still rely on extracted files after `arrow` files were printed - did I do something incorrectly when creating this dataset?
2. why doesn't the dataset know that it has been gutted and loads just fine? If it has a dependency on `download/extracted` then `load_dataset` should check if it's there and fail or force rebuilding. I am sure this could be a very expensive operation, so probably really solving #1 will not require this check. and this second item is probably an overkill. Other than perhaps if it had an optional `check_consistency` flag to do that.

Hi! 

This issue is due to our audio/image datasets not being self-contained. This allows us to save disk space (files are written only once) but also leads to the issues like this one. We plan to make all our datasets self-contained in Datasets 3.0.

In the meantime, you can run the following map to ensure your dataset is self-contained:
```python
from datasets.table import embed_table_storage
# load_dataset ...
dset = dset.with_format("arrow")
dset.map(embed_table_storage, batched=True)
dset = dset.with_format("python")
```


Understood. Thank you, Mario.

Perhaps the solution could be very simple - move the extracted files into the directory of the cached dataset? Which would make it self-contained already and won't require waiting for a new major release. Unless I'm missing some back-compat nuance.

But regardless if X relies on Y - it could check if Y is still there when loading X. so not checking full consistency but just the top-level directory it relies on.

Hello, 

I also face some problem with prebuilt dataset that relies on the same directory on 

`.cache\\huggingface\\datasets\\downloads\\extracted\\b557ce52f22c65030869d849d199d7b3fd5af18b335143729c717d29f6221baa\\ADEChallengeData2016\\annotations\\training\\ADE_train_00000023.png'`

The images exist but the training function somehow cannot reached it. Is this also related to the same problem?

Currently the directory map looked like this:

Will appreciate for some help and will help in completing further details, thanks in advance
