Description

In https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/23383, the file source V2 framework is implemented. In the PR, FileIndex is created as a member of FileTable, so that we can implement partition pruning like https://github.com/apache/spark/commit/0f9fcabb4ac2e8afec14d010e86467372a85d334 in the future(As data source V2 catalog is under development, partition pruning is removed from the PR)

However, after write path of file source V2 is implemented, I find that a simple write will create FileIndex, which is required by FileTable. This is a sort of regression.
This PR is to make FileIndex as a lazy value in FileTable, so that we can avoid creating unnecessary FileIndex in the write path.
