Fix secure hdfs access for spark on yarn

https://github.com/apache/incubator-spark/pull/23 broke secure hdfs access. Not sure if it works with secure hdfs on standalone. Fixing it at least for spark on yarn.

The broadcasting of jobconf change also broke secure hdfs access as it didn't take into account things calling the getPartitions before sparkContext is initialized. The DAGScheduler does this as it tries to getShuffleMapStage.

Add spark-tools assembly to spark-class'ss classpath

This commit adds an assembly for `spark-tools` and adds it to `spark-class`'s classpath, allowing the JavaAPICompletenessChecker to be run against Spark 0.8+ with

    ./spark-class org.apache.spark.tools.JavaAPICompletenessChecker

Previously, this tool was run through the `run` script.  I chose to add this to `run-example` because I didn't want to duplicate code in a `run-tool` script.
Call Kryo setReferences before calling user specified Kryo registrator.
add tachyon module
Moved the Spark internal class registration for Kryo into an object, and added more classes (e.g. MapStatus, BlockManagerId) to the registration.
Merge pull request #157 from rxin/kryo

3 Kryo related changes.

1. Call Kryo setReferences before calling user specified Kryo registrator. This is done so the user specified registrator can override the default setting.

2. Register more internal classes (MapStatus, BlockManagerId).

3. Slightly refactored the internal class registration to allocate less memory.
