[SPARK-20848][SQL] Shutdown the pool after reading parquet files ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? From JIRA: On each call to spark.read.parquet, a new ForkJoinPool is created. One of the threads in the pool is kept in the WAITING state, and never stopped, which leads to unbounded growth in number of threads. We should shutdown the pool after reading parquet files. ## How was this patch tested? Added a test to ParquetFileFormatSuite.
