Currently if the user returns a non data frame when calling map_partitions (e.g. returning a series) it uses this as the ddf in another catalog, which causes errors when the catalog expects a ddf but actually gets a series.
This updates the map_partitions method to check that the return type is a data frame. If the return type isn't, the raw dask collection is returned instead of creating the catalog.
Fixes #324
