[SPARK-16329] [SQL] [Backport-1.6] Star Expansion over Table Containing No
Column #14040
#### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Star expansion over a table containing zero column does not work since 1.6.
However, it works in Spark 1.5.1. This PR is to fix the issue in the master
branch.
For example,
```scala
val rddNoCols = sqlContext.sparkContext.parallelize(1 to 10).map(_ =>
Row.empty)
val dfNoCols = sqlContext.createDataFrame(rddNoCols, StructType(Seq.empty))
dfNoCols.registerTempTable("temp_table_no_cols")
sqlContext.sql("select * from temp_table_no_cols").show
```
Without the fix, users will get the following the exception:
```
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed
at scala.Predef$.require(Predef.scala:221)
at
org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.analysis.UnresolvedStar.expand(unresolved.scala:199)
```
#### How was this patch tested?
