GitHub issue: Datasets does not load HuggingFace Repository properly

### Describe the bug

Dear Datasets team,

We just have published a dataset on Huggingface:
https://huggingface.co/ai4privacy

However, when trying to read it using the Dataset library we get an error. As I understand jsonl files are compatible, could you please clarify how we can solve the issue? Please let me know and we would be more than happy to adapt the structure of the repository or meta data so it works easier:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("ai4privacy/pii-masking-200k")
```

```

Thank you and have a great day ahead

### Steps to reproduce the bug

Open Google Colab Notebook:

Run command:
!pip3 install datasets

Run code:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("ai4privacy/pii-masking-200k")

### Expected behavior

Download the dataset successfully from HuggingFace to the notebook so that we can start working with it
