[SPARK-13866][SQL] Handle decimal type in CSV inference at CSV data source.
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-13866
This PR adds the support to infer `DecimalType`.
This compares two `BigDecimal` but one of them is casted back from double.
So, if the roundtrip leads to precision loss, then this means casting to double
loses some values. In this way, we can recognize if casting from `String` to
`Double` has a precision loss.
## How was this patch tested?
Unit tests were used and `./dev/run_tests` for code style test.
