[SPARK-25660][SQL] Fix for the backward slash as CSV fields delimiter ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? The PR addresses the exception raised on accessing chars out of delimiter string. In particular, the backward slash `\` as the CSV fields delimiter causes the following exception on reading `abc\1`: ```Scala String index out of range: 1 java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 1 at java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:658) ``` because `str.charAt(1)` tries to access a char out of `str` in `CSVUtils.toChar` ## How was this patch tested? Added tests for empty string and string containing the backward slash to `CSVUtilsSuite`. Besides of that I added an end-to-end test to check how the backward slash is handled in reading CSV string with it.
