Thanks for working on this much needed cleanup! A few comments (some of
which were preexisting):
- The schema for set commands is wrong (we need some column name)
```
scala> sql("SET -v")
res4: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = [: string]
```
- Related to the above, I think we should consider breaking out the parts
of commands like `SET` and `SET -v` instead of just returning a string.
- When the option has a default, I think we should show that instead of
`<undefined>`
```
scala> sql("SET spark.sql.autoBroadcastJoinThreshold").collect()
res1: Array[org.apache.spark.sql.Row] =
Array([spark.sql.autoBroadcastJoinThreshold=<undefined>])
```
- It seems a bunch of boilerplate could be removed and we could get some
more typesafety by making the conf entries inter classes of SQLConf with
methods like `.value` and `.set(...)`. This would avoid having to have an
entry and a `def` for each config option. Perhaps I'm missing something though.
