[SPARK-2177][SQL] describe table result contains only one column

```
scala> hql("describe src").collect().foreach(println)

[key                 	string              	None                ]
[value               	string              	None                ]
```

The result should contain 3 columns instead of one. This screws up JDBC or even the downstream consumer of the Scala/Java/Python APIs.

I am providing a workaround. We handle a subset of describe commands in Spark SQL, which are defined by ...
```
DESCRIBE [EXTENDED] [db_name.]table_name
```
All other cases are treated as Hive native commands.

Also, if we upgrade Hive to 0.13, we need to check the results of context.sessionState.isHiveServerQuery() to determine how to split the result. This method is introduced by https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4545. We may want to set Hive to use JsonMetaDataFormatter for the output of a DDL statement (`set hive.ddl.output.format=json` introduced by https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2822).

SPARK-1293 [SQL] Parquet support for nested types

It should be possible to import and export data stored in Parquet's columnar format that contains nested types. For example:
```java
message AddressBook {
   required binary owner;
   optional group ownerPhoneNumbers {
      repeated binary array;
   }
   optional group contacts {
      repeated group array {
         required binary name;
         optional binary phoneNumber;
      }
   }
   optional group nameToApartmentNumber {
      repeated group map {
         required binary key;
         required int32 value;
      }
   }
}
```
The example could model a type (AddressBook) that contains records made of strings (owner), lists (ownerPhoneNumbers) and a table of contacts (e.g., a list of pairs or a map that can contain null values but keys must not be null). The list of tasks are as follows:

<h6>Implement support for converting nested Parquet types to Spark/Catalyst types:</h6>
- [x] Structs
- [x] Lists
- [x] Maps (note: currently keys need to be Strings)

<h6>Implement import (via ``parquetFile``) of nested Parquet types (first version in this PR)</h6>
- [x] Initial version

<h6>Implement export (via ``saveAsParquetFile``)</h6>
- [x] Initial version

<h6>Test support for AvroParquet, etc.</h6>
- [x] Initial testing of import of avro-generated Parquet data (simple + nested)

Example:
```scala
val data = TestSQLContext
  .parquetFile("input.dir")
  .toSchemaRDD
data.registerAsTable("data")
sql("SELECT owner, contacts[1].name, nameToApartmentNumber['John'] FROM data").collect()
```

[SPARK-2210] cast to boolean on boolean value gets turned into NOT((boolean_condition) = 0)

SPARK-2203: PySpark defaults to use same num reduce partitions as map side

For shuffle-based operators, such as rdd.groupBy() or rdd.sortByKey(), PySpark will always assume that the default parallelism to use for the reduce side is ctx.defaultParallelism, which is a constant typically determined by the number of cores in cluster.

In contrast, Spark's Partitioner#defaultPartitioner will use the same number of reduce partitions as map partitions unless the defaultParallelism config is explicitly set. This tends to be a better default in order to avoid OOMs, and should also be the behavior of PySpark.
