Issue: Fix loading Hub datasets with CSV metadata file
State: closed
Author: albertvillanova

Currently, the reading of the metadata file infers the file extension (.jsonl or .csv) from the passed filename. However, downloaded files from the Hub don't have file extension. For example:
- the original file: `hf://datasets/__DUMMY_TRANSFORMERS_USER__/test-dataset-5916a4-16977085077831/metadata.jsonl`
- corresponds to the downloaded path: `/tmp/pytest-of-username/pytest-46/cache/datasets/downloads/9f5374dbb470f711f6b89d66a5eec1f19cc96324b26bcbebe29138bda6cb20e6`, which does not have extension

In the case where the metadata file does not have an extension, the reader assumes it is a JSONL file, thus the reported error when trying to read a CSV file as a JSONL one: `ArrowInvalid: JSON parse error: Invalid value. in row 0`

This behavior was introduced by:
- #4837

This PR extracts the metadata file extension from the original filename (instead of the downloaded one) and passes it as a parameter to the read_metadata function.

Fix #6315.
