Using lazy val object instead of function in the class Cast, which improved the performance nearly by 2X in my local micro-benchmark.

[SPARK-1688] Propagate PySpark worker stderr to driver

When at least one of the following conditions is true, PySpark cannot be loaded:

1. PYTHONPATH is not set
2. PYTHONPATH does not contain the python directory (or jar, in the case of YARN)
3. The jar does not contain pyspark files (YARN)
4. The jar does not contain py4j files (YARN)

However, we currently throw the same random `java.io.EOFException` for all of the above cases, when trying to read from the python daemon's output. This message is super unhelpful.

This PR includes the python stderr and the PYTHONPATH in the exception propagated to the driver. Now, the exception message looks something like:

```
Error from python worker:
  : No module named pyspark
PYTHONPATH was:
  /path/to/spark/python:/path/to/some/jar
java.io.EOFException
  <stack trace>
```

whereas before it was just

```
java.io.EOFException
  <stack trace>
```

SPARK-1569 Spark on Yarn, authentication broken by pr299

Pass the configs as java options since the executor needs to know before it registers whether to create the connection using authentication or not.    We could see about passing only the authentication configs but for now I just had it pass them all.

I also updating it to use a list to construct the command to make it the same as ClientBase and avoid any issues with spaces.

SPARK-1544 Add support for deep decision trees.

@etrain and I came with a PR for arbitrarily deep decision trees at the cost of multiple passes over the data at deep tree levels.

To summarize:
1) We take a parameter that indicates the amount of memory users want to reserve for computation on each worker (and 2x that at the driver).
2) Using that information, we calculate two things - the maximum depth to which we train as usual (which is, implicitly, the maximum number of nodes we want to train in parallel), and the size of the groups we should use in the case where we exceed this depth.

Use numpy directly for matrix multiply.

Using matrix multiply to compute XtX and XtY yields a 5-20x speedup depending on problem size.

For example - the following takes 19s locally after this change vs. 5m21s before the change. (16x speedup).

SPARK-1565, update examples to be used with spark-submit script.

Commit for initial feedback, basically I am curious if we should prompt user for providing args esp. when its mandatory. And can we skip if they are not ?

Also few other things that did not work like
`bin/spark-submit examples/target/scala-2.10/spark-examples-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-hadoop1.0.4.jar --class org.apache.spark.examples.SparkALS --arg 100 500 10 5 2`

Not all the args get passed properly, may be I have messed up something will try to sort it out hopefully.

[SPARK-1745] Move interrupted flag from TaskContext constructor (minor)

It makes little sense to start a TaskContext that is interrupted. Indeed, I searched for all use cases of it and didn't find a single instance in which `interrupted` is true on construction.

This was inspired by reviewing #640, which adds an additional `@volatile var completed` that is similar. These are not the most urgent changes, but I wanted to push them out before I forget.

[SPARK-1755] Respect SparkSubmit --name on YARN

Right now, SparkSubmit ignores the `--name` flag for both yarn-client and yarn-cluster. This is a bug.

In client mode, SparkSubmit treats `--name` as a [cluster config](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/SparkSubmit.scala#L170) and does not propagate this to SparkContext.

In cluster mode, SparkSubmit passes this flag to `org.apache.spark.deploy.yarn.Client`, which only uses it for the [YARN ResourceManager](https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/yarn/stable/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/yarn/Client.scala#L80), but does not propagate this to SparkContext.

This PR ensures that `spark.app.name` is always set if SparkSubmit receives the `--name` flag, which is what the usage promises. This makes it possible for applications to start a SparkContext with an empty conf `val sc = new SparkContext(new SparkConf)`, and inherit the app name from SparkSubmit.

Tested both modes on a YARN cluster.
