Directory pruning is not happening when number of files is larger than 64k

    Description

      When the number of files is larger than 64k limit, directory pruning is not happening.
      We need to increase this limit further to handle most use cases.

      My proposal is to separate the code for directory pruning and partition pruning.
      Say in a parent directory there are 100 directories and 1 million files.
      If we only query the file from one directory, we should firstly read the 100 directories and narrow down to which directory; and then read the file paths in that directory in memory and do the rest stuff.

      Current behavior is , Drill will read all the file paths of that 1 million files in memory firstly, and then do directory pruning or partition pruning. This is not performance efficient nor memory efficient. And also it can not scale.
