   Currently with [storage-partitioned 
join](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1foTkDSM91VxKgkEcBMsuAvEjNybjja-uHk-r3vtXWFE/edit#heading=h.82w8qxfl2uwl),
 both sides of the join must be **fully clustered** over the partition values, 
that is, each Spark partition should have a distinct partition value. To 
guarantee this, Spark will group all the input partitions reported by a V2 data 
source on the partition values. The consequence, however, is that it can easily 
lead to data skew, when a few partition values have large amount of data.
   
   This PR introduce a new mechanism which requires only one side of the 
storage-partitioned join to be fully clustered, while the other side can be 
**partially clustered**, i.e., there could exist multiple Spark partitions with 
the identical partition value. At planning time, Spark will compare the 
statistics from both sides of the join, and pick the side with smaller size as 
full clustered side, while the other side is partially clustered. It then 
replicate the partitions on the former to match the number of partitions on the 
latter.
   
   A new config 
`spark.sql.sources.v2.bucketing.partiallyClusteredDistribution.enabled` is 
added to enable & disable the feature. By default it is turned off.
   
   For instance, consider the following SQL query:
   ```sql
   SELECT * FROM a JOIN b on a.id = b.id
   ```
   
   while table `a` reports partitions `[0, 1, 2]` while `b` reports partitions 
`[0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2]`.
   
   Without the PR, Spark would group input partitions so that both sides will 
have 3 partitions `[0, 1, 2]`. With the PR, Spark will choose the right-hand 
side as partially clustered and match the left-hand side with it. Therefore, 
both sides have 6 partitions `[0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2]`. 
   
   Note this PR currently relies on a simple heuristic and always pick the side 
with less data size based on table statistics as the side fully clustered, even 
though it could also contain skewed partitions. In future, we can potentially 
do fine-grained comparison based on partition values.
   
   ### 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.
   -->
   
   As mentioned in the previous section, this feature can help to reduce data 
skewness when a partition value is mapped to a large amount of rows.
   
   ### 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'.
   -->
   
   A new Spark config, 
`spark.sql.sources.v2.bucketing.partiallyClusteredDistribution.enabled`, is 
introduced to enable/disable the feature. By default it is disabled, so the 
behavior should still be the same as before.
   
   ### 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.
   -->
   
   Added a few new tests in `KeyGroupedPartitioningSuite`.
