[SPARK-21830][SQL] Bump ANTLR version and fix a few issues.

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This PR bumps the ANTLR version to 4.7, and fixes a number of small parser related issues uncovered by the bump.

The main reason for upgrading is that in some cases the current version of ANTLR (4.5) can exhibit exponential slowdowns if it needs to parse boolean predicates. For example the following query will take forever to parse:
```sql
SELECT *
FROM RANGE(1000)
WHERE
TRUE
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
AND NOT upper(DESCRIPTION) LIKE '%FOO%'
```

This is caused by a know bug in ANTLR (https://github.com/antlr/antlr4/issues/994), which was fixed in version 4.6.

## How was this patch tested?
Existing tests.
