    @yhuai Hi Yin, in the discoverPartitions method, we are trying to create 
the partition spec and are trying to cast a partition value to the 
corresponding user specified schema's column type. In case of null partition 
value the following code raises a null poiner exception in row.getString(i).
    
    Cast(Literal.create(row.getString(i), StringType),              
userProvidedSchema.fields(i).dataType).eval()
    
    in this fix i am trying to check for null first and create a null literal 
of string type as opposed to calling row.getString().  Hope it is okay .. 
Please let me know.
