[SPARK-4133] [SQL] [PySpark] type conversionfor python udf

Call Python UDF on ArrayType/MapType/PrimitiveType, the returnType can also be ArrayType/MapType/PrimitiveType.

For StructType, it will act as tuple (without attributes). If returnType is StructType, it also should be tuple.

[SPARK-4129][MLlib] Performance tuning in MultivariateOnlineSummarizer

In MultivariateOnlineSummarizer, breeze's activeIterator is used
to loop through the nonZero elements in the vector. However,
activeIterator doesn't perform well due to lots of overhead.
In this PR, native while loop is used for both DenseVector and SparseVector.

The benchmark result with 20 executors using mnist8m dataset:
Before:
DenseVector: 48.2 seconds
SparseVector: 16.3 seconds

After:
DenseVector: 17.8 seconds
SparseVector: 11.2 seconds

Since MultivariateOnlineSummarizer is used in several places,
the overall performance gain in mllib library will be significant with this PR.

[SPARK-3453] Netty-based BlockTransferService, extracted from Spark core

This PR encapsulates #2330, which is itself a continuation of #2240. The first goal of this PR is to provide an alternate, simpler implementation of the ConnectionManager which is based on Netty.

In addition to this goal, however, we want to resolve [SPARK-3796](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3796), which calls for a standalone shuffle service which can be integrated into the YARN NodeManager, Standalone Worker, or on its own. This PR makes the first step in this direction by ensuring that the actual Netty service is as small as possible and extracted from Spark core. Given this, we should be able to construct this standalone jar which can be included in other JVMs without incurring significant dependency or runtime issues. The actual work to ensure that such a standalone shuffle service would work in Spark will be left for a future PR, however.

In order to minimize dependencies and allow for the service to be long-running (possibly much longer-running than Spark, and possibly having to support multiple version of Spark simultaneously), the entire service has been ported to Java, where we have full control over the binary compatibility of the components and do not depend on the Scala runtime or version.

These issues: have been addressed by folding in #2330:

SPARK-3453: Refactor Netty module to use BlockTransferService interface
SPARK-3018: Release all buffers upon task completion/failure
SPARK-3002: Create a connection pool and reuse clients across different threads
SPARK-3017: Integration tests and unit tests for connection failures
SPARK-3049: Make sure client doesn't block when server/connection has error(s)
SPARK-3502: SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF should be bootstrap childOption, not option
SPARK-3503: Disable thread local cache in PooledByteBufAllocator

TODO before mergeable:
- [x] Implement uploadBlock()
- [x] Unit tests for RPC side of code
- [x] Performance testing (see comments [here](https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2753#issuecomment-59475022))
- [x] Turn OFF by default (currently on for unit testing)

[SPARK-3822] Executor scaling mechanism for Yarn

This is part of a broader effort to enable dynamic scaling of executors ([SPARK-3174](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3174)). This is intended to work alongside SPARK-3795 (#2746), SPARK-3796 and SPARK-3797, but is functionally independently of these other issues.

The logic is built on top of PraveenSeluka's changes at #2798. This is different from the changes there in a few major ways: (1) the mechanism is implemented within the existing scheduler backend framework rather than in new `Actor` classes. This also introduces a parent abstract class `YarnSchedulerBackend` to encapsulate common logic to communicate with the Yarn `ApplicationMaster`. (2) The interface of requesting executors exposed to the `SparkContext` is the same, but the communication between the scheduler backend and the AM uses total number executors desired instead of an incremental number. This is discussed in #2746 and explained in the comments in the code.

I have tested this significantly on a stable Yarn cluster.

------------
A remaining task for this issue is to tone down the error messages emitted when an executor is removed.
Currently, `SparkContext` and its components react as if the executor has failed, resulting in many scary error messages and eventual timeouts. While it's not strictly necessary to fix this as of the first-cut implementation of this mechanism, it would be good to add logic to distinguish this case. I prefer to address this in a separate PR. I have filed a separate JIRA for this task at SPARK-4134.

[SPARK-4097] Fix the race condition of 'thread'

There is a chance that `thread` is null when calling `thread.interrupt()`.

```Scala
  override def cancel(): Unit = this.synchronized {
    _cancelled = true
    if (thread != null) {
      thread.interrupt()
    }
  }
```
Should put `thread = null` into a `synchronized` block to fix the race condition.

Make the result of AVG on Decimals be Decimal, not Double
Add optional precision and scale to DecimalType, but use Unlimited for now

Implement CAST to fixed-precision decimal

Add rules for propagating precision through decimal calculations

These work by casting things to Decimal.Unlimited to do the actual
operation, then adding a cast on the result. They will result in more
casts than needed, but on the other hand they avoid having each
arithmetic operator know about decimal precision rules. We might be able
to add more rules later to eliminate some intermediate casts.
Added mutable Decimal that will be more efficient for small precisions

Optimize sums and averages on fixed-precision Decimals
Some test and bug fixes
Support decimal precision/scale in Hive metastore
Fix compile error after rebase
