[SPARK-3795] Heuristics for dynamically scaling executors

This is part of a bigger effort to provide elastic scaling of executors within a Spark application ([SPARK-3174](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3174)). This PR does not provide any functionality by itself; it is a skeleton that is missing a mechanism to be added later in [SPARK-3822](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3822).

Comments and feedback are most welcome. For those of you reviewing this in detail, I highly recommend doing it through your favorite IDE instead of through the diff here.

[SPARK-4053][Streaming] Made the ReceiverSuite test more reliable, by fixing block generator throttling

In the unit test that checked whether blocks generated by throttled block generator had expected number of records, the thresholds are too tight, which sometimes led to the test failing.
This PR fixes it by relaxing the thresholds and the time intervals for testing.
