Subject: [PATCH] [SPARK-16555] Work around Jekyll error-handling bug which led
 to silent failures

If a custom Jekyll template tag throws Ruby's equivalent of a "file not found" exception, then Jekyll will stop the doc building process but will exit with a successful status, causing our doc publishing jobs to silently fail.

This is caused by https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/issues/5104, a case of bad error-handling logic in Jekyll. This patch works around this by updating our `include_example.rb` plugin to catch the exception and exit rather than allowing it to bubble up and be ignored by Jekyll.

I tested this manually with

```
rm ./examples/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/examples/sql/SparkSQLExample.scala
cd docs
SKIP_API=1 jekyll build
echo $?
```

Closes #14209 from JoshRosen/fix-doc-building.
