Description
### Describe the bug
load_dataset() ignores the column_names kwarg when loading a CSV file. Instead, it uses whatever values are on the first line of the file.
### Steps to reproduce the bug
Call `load_dataset` to load data from a CSV file and specify `column_names` kwarg.
### Expected behavior
The resulting dataset should have the specified column names **and** the first line of the file should be considered as data values.
