[SPARK-20967][SQL] SharedState.externalCatalog is not really lazy
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
`SharedState.externalCatalog` is marked as a `lazy val` but actually it's
not lazy. We access `externalCatalog` while initializing `SharedState` and thus
eliminate the effort of `lazy val`. When creating `ExternalCatalog` we will try
to connect to the metastore and may throw an error, so it makes sense to make
it a `lazy val` in `SharedState`.
## How was this patch tested?
existing tests.
