    [SPARK-20770][SQL] Improve ColumnStats

    ## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
    
    This PR improves the implementation of `ColumnStats` by using the following 
appoaches.
    
    1. Declare subclasses of `ColumnStats` as `final` 
    2. Remove unnecessary call of `row.isNullAt(ordinal)` 
    3. Remove the dependency on `GenericInternalRow`
    
    For 1., this declaration encourages method inlining and other optimizations 
of JIT compiler
    For 2., in `gatherStats()`, while previous code in subclasses of 
`ColumnStats` always calls `row.isNullAt()` twice, the PR just calls 
`row.isNullAt()` only once.
    For 3., `collectedStatistics()` returns `Array[Any]` instead of 
`GenericInternalRow`. This removes the dependency of unnecessary package and 
reduces the number of allocations of `GenericInternalRow`.
    
    In addition to that, in the future, `gatherValueStats()`, which is 
specialized for each data type, can be effectively called from the generated 
code without using generic data structure `InternalRow`.
    
    ## How was this patch tested?
    
    Tested by existing test suite
