[SPARK-16034][SQL][WIP] Checks the partition columns when calling dataFrame.write.mode("append").saveAsTable ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? DataFrameWriter can be used to append data to existing DataSource tables. It becomes tricky when partition columns used in `DataFrameWriter.partitionBy(columns)` doesn't match the actual partition columns of the underlying table. This pull request enforces the check so that the partition columns always match. ## How was this patch tested? Unit test.
