Description
We need to document a specific behavior of Spark Datasets that runs contrary to how Kudu works.
Say you have 3 columns "k, x, y" where k is the primary key.
You run a first insert on a row "k=1, x=2, y=3".
Now you upsert "k=1, y=4".
Using any Kudu API, the full row would now be "k=1, x=2, y=4" but with Datasets you have "k=1, x=NULL, y=4". This means that Datasets put a null value when some columns aren't specified.
