[SPARK-1880] [SQL] Eliminate unnecessary job executions. There are unnecessary job executions in `BroadcastNestedLoopJoin`. When `Innner` or `LeftOuter` join, preparation of `rightOuterMatches` for `RightOuter` or `FullOuter` join is not neccessary. And when `RightOuter` or `FullOuter`, it should use not `count` and then `reduce` but `fold`.
