[SPARK-23421][SPARK-22356][SQL] Document the behavior change in

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/19579 introduces a behavior change. We 
need to document it in the migration guide.

## How was this patch tested?
Also update the HiveExternalCatalogVersionsSuite to verify it.

 ## Upgrading From Spark SQL 2.1 to 2.2
 
   - Spark 2.1.1 introduced a new configuration key: 
`spark.sql.hive.caseSensitiveInferenceMode`. It had a default setting of 
`NEVER_INFER`, which kept behavior identical to 2.1.0. However, Spark 2.2.0 
changes this setting's default value to `INFER_AND_SAVE` to restore 
compatibility with reading Hive metastore tables whose underlying file schema 
have mixed-case column names. With the `INFER_AND_SAVE` configuration value, on 
first access Spark will perform schema inference on any Hive metastore table 
for which it has not already saved an inferred schema. Note that schema 
inference can be a very time consuming operation for tables with thousands of 
partitions. If compatibility with mixed-case column names is not a concern, you 
can safely set `spark.sql.hive.caseSensitiveInferenceMode` to `NEVER_INFER` to 
avoid the initial overhead of schema inference. Note that with the new default 
`INFER_AND_SAVE` setting, the results of the schema inference are saved as a 
metastore key for future use
 . Therefore, the initial schema inference occurs only at a table's first 
access.
+  
+  - Since Spark 2.2.1 and 2.3.0, the schema is always inferred at runtime when 
the data source tables have the columns that exist in both partition schema and 
data schema. The inferred schema does not have the partitioned columns. When 
reading the table, Spark respects the partition values of these overlapping 
columns instead of the values stored in the data source files. In 2.2.0 and 
2.1.x release, the inferred schema is partitioned but the data of the table is 
invisible to users (i.e., the result set is empty).
