[SPARK-18528][SQL] Fix a bug to initialise an iterator of aggregation buffer ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? This pr is to fix an `NullPointerException` issue caused by a following `limit + aggregate` query; ``` scala> val df = Seq(("a", 1), ("b", 2), ("c", 1), ("d", 5)).toDF("id", "value") scala> df.limit(2).groupBy("id").count().show WARN TaskSetManager: Lost task 0.0 in stage 9.0 (TID 8204, lvsp20hdn012.stubprod.com): java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.GeneratedClass$GeneratedIterator.agg_doAggregateWithKeys$(Unknown Source) at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.GeneratedClass$GeneratedIterator.processNext(Unknown Source) ``` The root culprit is that [`$doAgg()`](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/aggregate/HashAggregateExec.scala#L596) skips an initialization of [the buffer iterator](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/aggregate/HashAggregateExec.scala#L603); `BaseLimitExec` sets `stopEarly=true` and `$doAgg()` exits in the middle without the initialization. ## How was this patch tested? Added a test to check if no exception happens for limit + aggregates in `DataFrameAggregateSuite.scala`.
