SPARK-1053.  Don't require SPARK_YARN_APP_JAR

It looks this just requires taking out the checks.

I verified that, with the patch, I was able to run spark-shell through yarn without setting the environment variable.

SPARK-1078:  Replace lift-json with json4s-jackson.

The aim of the Json4s project is to provide a common API for
Scala JSON libraries.  It is Apache-licensed, easier for
downstream distributions to package, and mostly API-compatible
with lift-json.  Furthermore, the Jackson-backed implementation
parses faster than lift-json on all but the smallest inputs.

SPARK-1135: fix broken anchors in docs

A recent PR that added Java vs Scala tabs for streaming also
inadvertently added some bad code to a document.ready handler, breaking
our other handler that manages scrolling to anchors correctly with the
floating top bar. As a result the section title ended up always being
hidden below the top bar. This removes the unnecessary JavaScript code.
