k=v to the table path, select result will be wrong  (was: Select result is 
incorrect when add a directory named with k=v to the table path of external 
non-partition table)

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 2.3.2, 2.4.0
>            Reporter: Bao Yunz
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: usability

> Scene 1
> Create a external non-partition table, in which location directory has a 
> directory named with "part=1", for example. Then desc the table, we will find 
> the string "part" is showed in table column. when insert the table with data 
> which has same column with target table , will throw a exception that target 
> table has different column number with the inserted data. 
> Scene 2
> Create a external non-partition table, which location path is empty. After 
> several times insert operation, we add a directory named with "part=1" in the 
> table location directory. Then do insert and select operation, we will find 
> the scan path is changed to "tablePath/part=1",so that we will get a wrong 
> result.
>  
> It seems that the existing logic of spark will process this kind of table 
> like a partition table. But when we do show partitions operation, it will 
> throw the exception that the table is not partitioned, which is confusing。We 
> believe that the normal logic should be that if a table is a non-partitioned 
> table, the folder under tablePath should not change its basic properties.
