[SQL] More aggressive defaults

 - Turns on compression for in-memory cached data by default
 - Changes the default parquet compression format back to gzip (we have seen more OOMs with production workloads due to the way Snappy allocates memory)
 - Ups the batch size to 10,000 rows
 - Increases the broadcast threshold to 10mb.
 - Uses our parquet implementation instead of the hive one by default.
 - Cache parquet metadata by default.
