[SPARK-17720][SQL] introduce global SQL conf
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
SQLConf is session-scoped and mutable. However, we do have the requirement
for a global immutable SQL conf, e.g. the `schemaStringThreshold` in
`HiveExternalCatalog`, the flag to enable/disable hive support, the global temp
view database in https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14897.
Actually we've already implemented global SQL conf implicitly via
`SparkConf`, this PR just make it explicit and expose it to users, so that they
can see the config value via SQL command or `SparkSession.conf`, and forbid
users to set/unset global SQL conf.
## How was this patch tested?
new tests in SQLConfSuite
