So yeah BTW my high-level comment is if we can get rid of createPaquetFile
and just add a "table name" argument to saveAsParquetFile. Then we should also
rename createTableAs to saveAsTable.
By the way, longer-term, we might generalize saveAsTable to take some kind
of URI for a storage location, so that the same API can be used to store stuff
in Hive, Cassandra, Parquet, etc. But I don't see that clashing with the
current API.
