[MLlib] [SPARK-2510]Word2Vec: Distributed Representation of Words

This is a pull request regarding SPARK-2510 at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2510. Word2Vec creates vector representation of words in a text corpus. The algorithm first constructs a vocabulary from the corpus and then learns vector representation of words in the vocabulary. The vector representation can be used as features in natural language processing and machine learning algorithms.

To make our implementation more scalable, we train each partition separately and merge the model of each partition after each iteration. To make the model more accurate, multiple iterations may be needed.

To investigate the vector representations is to find the closest words for a query word. For example, the top 20 closest words to "china" are for 1 partition and 1 iteration :
