Apply reservoir sampling in SampledPlotBase

Why are the changes needed?

Existing sampling approach has two drawbacks:

1, it needs two jobs to sample max_rows rows:

  • df.count() to compute fraction = max_rows / count
  • df.sample(fraction).to_pandas() to do the sampling

2, the df.sample is based on Bernoulli sampling which cannot guarantee the sampled size == expected max_rows, e.g.

In [1]: df = spark.range(10000)

In [2]: [df.sample(0.01).count() for i in range(0, 10)]
Out[2]: [96, 97, 95, 97, 105, 105, 105, 87, 95, 110]

The size of sampled data is floating near the target size 10000*0.01=100.
This relative deviation cannot be ignored, when the input dataset is large and the sampling fraction is small.

sort + limit is likely be optimized to TakeOrderedAndProject which output single partition, this coalesce here is just used to guarantee the partitioning.

will send separate PR for the new dataframe plotting

I’m wondering if this is considered a “user-facing change” since the sampling directly affects the appearance of the plot

hmm, I don't think this is a “user-facing change” because:
1, it only take affect when number of rows > max_rows;
2, it is just another (better) implementation of uniform sampling;

### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Apply reservoir sampling in `SampledPlotBase`

### Why are the changes needed?
Existing sampling approach has two drawbacks:

1, it needs two jobs to sample `max_rows` rows:

- df.count() to compute `fraction = max_rows / count`
- df.sample(fraction).to_pandas() to do the sampling

2, the df.sample is based on Bernoulli sampling which **cannot** guarantee the sampled size == expected `max_rows`, e.g.
```
In [1]: df = spark.range(10000)

In [2]: [df.sample(0.01).count() for i in range(0, 10)]
Out[2]: [96, 97, 95, 97, 105, 105, 105, 87, 95, 110]
```
The size of sampled data is floating near the target size 10000*0.01=100.
This relative deviation cannot be ignored, when the input dataset is large and the sampling fraction is small.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
No
