Ah, I think I remember the issue: I think that Python places the main
file's enclosing directory onto the Python path to enable relative imports, so
I guess that `python/pyspark/sql` ends up on the PYTHONPATH when we directly
execute its files in run-tests. We had a sort of messy hack for dealing with
this earlier, but the file rename here also seems fine so let's go ahead and
keep it.
