[SPARK-21759][SQL] In.checkInputDataTypes should not wrongly report unresolved plans for IN correlated subquery

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

With the check for structural integrity proposed in SPARK-21726, it is found that the optimization rule `PullupCorrelatedPredicates` can produce unresolved plans.

For a correlated IN query looks like:

    SELECT t1.a FROM t1
    WHERE
    t1.a IN (SELECT t2.c
            FROM t2
            WHERE t1.b < t2.d);

The query plan might look like:

    Project [a#0]
    +- Filter a#0 IN (list#4 [b#1])
       :  +- Project [c#2]
       :     +- Filter (outer(b#1) < d#3)
       :        +- LocalRelation <empty>, [c#2, d#3]
       +- LocalRelation <empty>, [a#0, b#1]

After `PullupCorrelatedPredicates`, it produces query plan like:

    'Project [a#0]
    +- 'Filter a#0 IN (list#4 [(b#1 < d#3)])
       :  +- Project [c#2, d#3]
       :     +- LocalRelation <empty>, [c#2, d#3]
       +- LocalRelation <empty>, [a#0, b#1]

Because the correlated predicate involves another attribute `d#3` in subquery, it has been pulled out and added into the `Project` on the top of the subquery.

When `list` in `In` contains just one `ListQuery`, `In.checkInputDataTypes` checks if the size of `value` expressions matches the output size of subquery. In the above example, there is only `value` expression and the subquery output has two attributes `c#2, d#3`, so it fails the check and `In.resolved` returns `false`.

We should not let `In.checkInputDataTypes` wrongly report unresolved plans to fail the structural integrity check.

## How was this patch tested?

Added test.

Apache Spark

Spark is a fast and general cluster computing system for Big Data. It provides high-level APIs in Scala, Java, Python, and R, and an optimized engine that supports general computation graphs for data analysis. It also supports a rich set of higher-level tools including Spark SQL for SQL and DataFrames, MLlib for machine learning, GraphX for graph processing, and Spark Streaming for stream processing.

Online Documentation

You can find the latest Spark documentation, including a programming guide, on the project web page. This README file only contains basic setup instructions.

Building Spark

Spark is built using Apache Maven. To build Spark and its example programs, run:

build/mvn -DskipTests clean package

(You do not need to do this if you downloaded a pre-built package.)

You can build Spark using more than one thread by using the -T option with Maven, see "Parallel builds in Maven 3". More detailed documentation is available from the project site, at "Building Spark".

For general development tips, including info on developing Spark using an IDE, see "Useful Developer Tools".

Interactive Scala Shell

The easiest way to start using Spark is through the Scala shell:

./bin/spark-shell

Try the following command, which should return 1000:

scala> sc.parallelize(1 to 1000).count()

Interactive Python Shell

Alternatively, if you prefer Python, you can use the Python shell:

./bin/pyspark

And run the following command, which should also return 1000:

>>> sc.parallelize(range(1000)).count()

Example Programs

Spark also comes with several sample programs in the examples directory. To run one of them, use ./bin/run-example <class> [params]. For example:

./bin/run-example SparkPi

will run the Pi example locally.

You can set the MASTER environment variable when running examples to submit examples to a cluster. This can be a mesos:// or spark:// URL, "yarn" to run on YARN, and "local" to run locally with one thread, or "local[N]" to run locally with N threads. You can also use an abbreviated class name if the class is in the examples package. For instance:

MASTER=spark://host:7077 ./bin/run-example SparkPi

Many of the example programs print usage help if no params are given.

Running Tests

Testing first requires building Spark. Once Spark is built, tests can be run using:

./dev/run-tests

Please see the guidance on how to run tests for a module, or individual tests.

A Note About Hadoop Versions

Spark uses the Hadoop core library to talk to HDFS and other Hadoop-supported storage systems. Because the protocols have changed in different versions of Hadoop, you must build Spark against the same version that your cluster runs.

Please refer to the build documentation at "Specifying the Hadoop Version" for detailed guidance on building for a particular distribution of Hadoop, including building for particular Hive and Hive Thriftserver distributions.

Configuration

Please refer to the Configuration Guide in the online documentation for an overview on how to configure Spark.
