[SPARK-XXXX][SQL] Can't add subquery to an operator with same-name outputs
while generate SQL string
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This PR tries to solve a fundamental issue in the `SQLBuilder`. When we
want to turn a logical plan into SQL string and put it after FROM clause, we
need to wrap it with a sub-query. However, a logical plan is allowed to have
same-name outputs with different qualifiers(e.g. the `Join` operator), and this
kind of plan can't be put under a subquery as we will erase and assign a new
qualifier to all outputs and make it impossible to distinguish same-name
outputs.
To solve this problem, this PR renames all attributes with globally unique
names(using exprId), so that we don't need qualifiers to resolve ambiguity
anymore.
## How was this patch tested?
existing tests and new tests in LogicalPlanToSQLSuite.
