[SPARK-18209][SQL] Alias the view with its child by mapping the columns by index ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? This PR is a follow-up to address the comments https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16233/files#r95669988 and https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16233/files#r95662299. We should alias the view with its child by mapping the columns by index, which follows the behavior in Hive. If the dataType of the outputs from the view and the child don't match up, we should throw an Exception. ## How was this patch tested? Add new test cases in `SQLViewSuite`.
