[SPARK-13719][SQL] Parse JSON rows having an array type and a struct type in the same fieild

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

This https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2400 added the support to parse JSON rows wrapped with an array. However, this throws an exception when the given data contains array data and struct data in the same field as below:

```json
{"a": {"b": 1}}
{"a": []}
```

and the schema is given as below:

```scala
val schema =
  StructType(
    StructField("a", StructType(
      StructField("b", StringType) :: Nil
    )) :: Nil)
```

- **Before**

```scala
sqlContext.read.schema(schema).json(path).show()
```

```scala
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.spark.SparkException: Job aborted due to stage failure: Task 7 in stage 0.0 failed 4 times, most recent failure: Lost task 7.3 in stage 0.0 (TID 10, 192.168.1.170): java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.spark.sql.types.GenericArrayData cannot be cast to org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.InternalRow
	at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.BaseGenericInternalRow$class.getStruct(rows.scala:50)
	at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.GenericMutableRow.getStruct(rows.scala:247)
	at org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.GeneratedClass$SpecificPredicate.eval(Unknown Source)
...
```

- **After**

```scala
sqlContext.read.schema(schema).json(path).show()
```

```bash
+----+
|   a|
+----+
| [1]|
|null|
+----+
```

For other data types, in this case it converts the given values are `null` but only this case emits an exception.

This PR makes the support for wrapped rows applied only at the top level.

## How was this patch tested?

Unit tests were used and `./dev/run_tests` for code style tests.
