[SPARK-2431][SQL] Refine StringComparison and related codes.

Refine `StringComparison` and related codes as follows:
- `StringComparison` could be similar to `StringRegexExpression` or `CaseConversionExpression`.
- Nullability of `StringRegexExpression` could depend on children's nullabilities.
- Add a case that the like condition includes no wildcard to `LikeSimplification`.

[SPARK-2455] Mark (Shippable)VertexPartition serializable

VertexPartition and ShippableVertexPartition are contained in RDDs but are not marked Serializable, leading to NotSerializableExceptions when using Java serialization.

The fix is simply to mark them as Serializable. This PR does that and adds a test for serializing them using Java and Kryo serialization.

[SPARK-2443][SQL] Fix slow read from partitioned tables

This fix obtains a comparable performance boost as [PR #1390](https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/1390) by moving an array update and deserializer initialization out of a potentially very long loop. Suggested by yhuai. The below results are updated for this fix.

## Benchmarks
Generated a local text file with 10M rows of simple key-value pairs. The data is loaded as a table through Hive. Results are obtained on my local machine using hive/console.

Without the fix:

Type | Non-partitioned | Partitioned (1 part)
------------ | ------------ | -------------
First run | 9.52s end-to-end (1.64s Spark job) | 36.6s (28.3s)
Stablized runs | 1.21s (1.18s) | 27.6s (27.5s)

With this fix:

Type | Non-partitioned | Partitioned (1 part)
------------ | ------------ | -------------
First run | 9.57s (1.46s) | 11.0s (1.69s)
Stablized runs | 1.13s (1.10s) | 1.23s (1.19s)

Add/increase severity of warning in documentation of groupBy()

groupBy()/groupByKey() is notorious for being a very convenient API that can lead to poor performance when used incorrectly.

This PR just makes it clear that users should be cautious not to rely on this API when they really want a different (more performant) one, such as reduceByKey().

(Note that one source of confusion is the name; this groupBy() is not the same as a SQL GROUP-BY, which is used for aggregation and is more similar in nature to Spark's reduceByKey().)
