   This PR is a follow-up for 
https://github.com/databricks/runtime/commit/3bc6fe4e77e1791c0a20387240e93d0175e0fade.
 In the original commit, `spark.hadoopRDD.ignoreEmptySplits` was enabled due to 
seemingly no side-effects, however, this change breaks `SymlinkTextInputFormat` 
any table that uses the input format would return empty results.
   
   This is due to a combination of problems:
   1. Incorrect implementation of 
[SymlinkTextInputSplit](https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/io/SymlinkTextInputFormat.java#L73).
 The input format does not set `start` and `length` fields from the target 
split. `SymlinkTextInputSplit` is an abstraction over FileSplit and all 
downstream systems treat it as such - those fields should be extracted and 
passed from the target split.
   2. `spark.hadoopRDD.ignoreEmptySplits` being enabled causes HadoopRDD to 
filter out all of the empty splits which does not work in the case of 
SymlinkTextInputFormat. This is due to 1. Because we don't set any length (and 
start) those splits are considered to be empty and are removed from the final 
list of partitions even though the target splits themselves are non-empty.
   
   Technically, this needs to be addressed in Hive but I figured it would be 
much faster to fix this in Spark.
   
   ### Why are the changes needed?
   <!--
   Please clarify why the changes are needed. For instance,
     1. If you propose a new API, clarify the use case for a new API.
     2. If you fix a bug, you can clarify why it is a bug.
   -->
   
   Fixes a correctness issue when using `SymlinkTextInputSplit` in Spark.
   
   ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
   <!--
   Note that it means *any* user-facing change including all aspects such as 
the documentation fix.
   If yes, please clarify the previous behavior and the change this PR proposes 
- provide the console output, description and/or an example to show the 
behavior difference if possible.
   If possible, please also clarify if this is a user-facing change compared to 
the released Spark versions or within the unreleased branches such as master.
   If no, write 'No'.
   -->
   
   No.
   
   ### How was this patch tested?
   <!--
   If tests were added, say they were added here. Please make sure to add some 
test cases that check the changes thoroughly including negative and positive 
cases if possible.
   If it was tested in a way different from regular unit tests, please clarify 
how you tested step by step, ideally copy and paste-able, so that other 
reviewers can test and check, and descendants can verify in the future.
   If tests were not added, please describe why they were not added and/or why 
it was difficult to add.
   If benchmark tests were added, please run the benchmarks in GitHub Actions 
for the consistent environment, and the instructions could accord to: 
https://spark.apache.org/developer-tools.html#github-workflow-benchmarks.
   -->
   
   I added a unit test that reproduces the issue and verified that it passes 
with the fix.
