> DataFrameReader always collects the first line from the first partition on 
> every csv() call. This is used for schema inference and header filtering. But 
> if schema is pre-specified by the user and header is false, there's no point.
> For certain cases CSV dataset generation is expensive and slow, and this 
> clogs up the entire executor with 1 job to grab 1 line. If it's not needed, 
> skipping the first line step is a free lunch for runtime and efficiency.
