    [SPARK-21023][Submit] Ignore to load default properties file is not a…

    … good choice from the perspective of system
    
    ## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
    
    The default properties file spark-defaults.conf shouldn't be ignore to load 
even though the submit arg --properties-file is set. The reasons are very easy 
to see:
    
    1. Infrastructure team need continually update the spark-defaults.conf when 
they want set something as default for entire cluster as a tuning purpose.
    2. Application developer only want to override the parameters they really 
want rather than others they even doesn't know (Set by infrastructure team).
    3. The purpose of using --properties-file from most of application 
developers is to avoid setting dozens of --conf k=v. But if spark-defaults.conf 
is ignored, the behaviour becomes unexpected finally.
    
    All this caused by below codes:
    ```
      private Properties loadPropertiesFile() throws IOException {
        Properties props = new Properties();
        File propsFile;
        if (propertiesFile != null) {
        // default conf property file will not be loaded when app developer use 
--properties-file as a submit args
          propsFile = new File(propertiesFile);
          checkArgument(propsFile.isFile(), "Invalid properties file '%s'.", 
propertiesFile);
        } else {
          propsFile = new File(getConfDir(), DEFAULT_PROPERTIES_FILE);
        }
    
        //...
    
        return props;
      }
    ```
    
    
    ## How was this patch tested?
    
    Modify the UT of SparkSubmitCommandBuilderSuite.java
