[SPARK-20682][SQL] Support a new faster ORC data source based on Apache ORC
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Since [SPARK-2883](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2883),
Apache Spark supports Apache ORC inside `sql/hive` module with Hive dependency.
This issue aims to add a new and faster ORC data source inside `sql/core` and
to replace the old ORC data source eventually. In this issue, the latest Apache
ORC 1.4.0 (released yesterday) is used.
There are four key benefits.
- Speed: Use both Spark `ColumnarBatch` and ORC `RowBatch` together. This
is faster than the current implementation in Spark.
- Stability: Apache ORC 1.4.0 has many fixes and we can depend on ORC
community more.
- Usability: User can use `ORC` data sources without hive module, i.e,
`-Phive`.
- Maintainability: Reduce the Hive dependency and can remove old legacy
code later.
## How was this patch tested?
Pass the Jenkins tests with newly added test suites in `sql/core`.
