> In GenericUDAFPercentileApproxEvaluator, the method `merge` should process an ArrayList which name is partialHistogram. Normally, the basic structure of partialHistogram is [npercentiles, percentile0, percentile1..., nbins, bin0.x, bin0.y, bin1.x, bin1.y,...]. However, if we are process NULL(empty set) column values, the partialHistoram will only contains [npercentiles(0), nbins(10000)]. That's the reason why the stacktrace shows a strange row data: {"key":{},"value":{"_col0":[0.0,10000.0]}}
> Before we call histogram#merge (on-line hisgoram algorithm from paper: http://www.jmlr.org/papers/volume11/ben-haim10a/ben-haim10a.pdf ), the partialHistogram should remove elements which store percentiles like `partialHistogram.subList(0, nquantiles+1).clear();`. In the case of empty set, GenericUDAFPercentileApproxEvaluator will not remove percentiles. Consequently, NumericHistogram will merge a list which contains only 2 elements([0, 10000.0]) and throws IndexOutOfBoundsException.
