Review Comment:
   I agree. This PR just simply changes the behavior of a predicate. The 
current tests would suffice. We can keep it this way, and probably you 
shouldn't call it spatial join.
   
   I think I am just curious how the current [spatial join 
logic](https://jiayuasu.github.io/files/paper/GeoSpark_Geoinformatica_2018.pdf) 
(distance join and range join) handles `EMPTY` geometries. Our spatial joins go 
through several phases (1) distributed spatial partitioning (if the data is too 
large for a broadcast join) (2) spatial index building (3) filtering (4) 
predicate eval. IIRC, empty geometries probably get pruned out at Phase 1 or 
Phase 2. So the ST_Distance eval bug probably didn't surface before.
