[SPARK-3169] Removed dependency on spark streaming test from spark flume sink

Due to maven bug https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1378, maven could not resolve spark streaming classes required by the spark-streaming test-jar dependency of external/flume-sink. There is no particular reason that the external/flume-sink has to depend on Spark Streaming at all, so I am eliminating this dependency. Also I have removed the exclusions present in the Flume dependencies, as there is no reason to exclude them (they were excluded in the external/flume module to prevent dependency collisions with Spark).

Since Jenkins will test the sbt build and the unit test, I only tested maven compilation locally.

[SPARK-2963] REGRESSION - The description about how to build for using CLI and Thrift JDBC server is absent in proper document  -

The most important things I mentioned in #1885 is as follows.

* People who build Spark is not always programmer.
* If a person who build Spark is not a programmer, he/she won't read programmer's guide before building.

So, how to build for using CLI and JDBC server is not only in programmer's guide.

[SPARK-2871] [PySpark] add zipWithIndex() and zipWithUniqueId()

RDD.zipWithIndex()

        Zips this RDD with its element indices.

        The ordering is first based on the partition index and then the
        ordering of items within each partition. So the first item in
        the first partition gets index 0, and the last item in the last
        partition receives the largest index.

        This method needs to trigger a spark job when this RDD contains
        more than one partitions.

        >>> sc.parallelize(range(4), 2).zipWithIndex().collect()
        [(0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3)]

RDD.zipWithUniqueId()

        Zips this RDD with generated unique Long ids.

        Items in the kth partition will get ids k, n+k, 2*n+k, ..., where
        n is the number of partitions. So there may exist gaps, but this
        method won't trigger a spark job, which is different from
        L{zipWithIndex}

        >>> sc.parallelize(range(4), 2).zipWithUniqueId().collect()
        [(0, 0), (2, 1), (1, 2), (3, 3)]
