[SPARK-3128][MLLIB] Use streaming test suite for StreamingLR

Refactored tests for streaming linear regression to use existing  streaming test utilities. Summary of changes:
- Made ``mllib`` depend on tests from ``streaming``
- Rewrote accuracy and convergence tests to use ``setupStreams`` and ``runStreams``
- Added new test for the accuracy of predictions generated by ``predictOnValue``

These tests should run faster, be easier to extend/maintain, and provide a reference for new tests.

SPARK-2333 - spark_ec2 script should allow option for existing security group

    - Uses the name tag to identify machines in a cluster.
    - Allows overriding the security group name so it doesn't need to coincide with the cluster name.
    - Outputs the request id's of up to 10 pending spot instance requests.

[SPARK-3136][MLLIB] Create Java-friendly methods in RandomRDDs

Though we don't use default argument for methods in RandomRDDs, it is still not easy for Java users to use because the output type is either `RDD[Double]` or `RDD[Vector]`. Java users should expect `JavaDoubleRDD` and `JavaRDD[Vector]`, respectively. We should create dedicated methods for Java users, and allow default arguments in Scala methods in RandomRDDs, to make life easier for both Java and Scala users. This PR also contains documentation for random data generation. brkyvz

[SQL] add note of use synchronizedMap in SQLConf

Refer to:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/510632/whats-the-difference-between-concurrenthashmap-and-collections-synchronizedmap
Collections.synchronizedMap(map) creates a blocking Map which will degrade performance, albeit ensure consistency. So use ConcurrentHashMap(a more effective thread-safe hashmap) instead.

also update HiveQuerySuite to fix test error when changed to ConcurrentHashMap.

[SPARK-3119] Re-implementation of TorrentBroadcast.

This is a re-implementation of TorrentBroadcast, with the following changes:

1. Removes most of the mutable, transient state from TorrentBroadcast (e.g. totalBytes, num of blocks fetched).
2. Removes TorrentInfo and TorrentBlock
3. Replaces the BlockManager.getSingle call in readObject with a getLocal, resuling in one less RPC call to the BlockManagerMasterActor to find the location of the block.
4. Removes the metadata block, resulting in one less block to fetch.
5. Removes an extra memory copy for deserialization (by using Java's SequenceInputStream).

Basically for a regular broadcasted object with only one block, the number of RPC calls goes from 5+1 to 2+1).

Old TorrentBroadcast for object of a single block:
1 RPC to ask for location of the broadcast variable
1 RPC to ask for location of the metadata block
1 RPC to fetch the metadata block
1 RPC to ask for location of the first data block
1 RPC to fetch the first data block
1 RPC to tell the driver we put the first data block in
i.e. 5 + 1

New TorrentBroadcast for object of a single block:
1 RPC to ask for location of the first data block
1 RPC to get the first data block
1 RPC to tell the driver we put the first data block in
i.e. 2 + 1

[SPARK-2974] [SPARK-2975] Fix two bugs related to spark.local.dirs

This PR fixes two bugs related to `spark.local.dirs` and `SPARK_LOCAL_DIRS`, one where `Utils.getLocalDir()` might return an invalid directory (SPARK-2974) and another where the `SPARK_LOCAL_DIRS` override didn't affect the driver, which could cause problems when running tasks in local mode (SPARK-2975).

This patch fixes both issues: the new `Utils.getOrCreateLocalRootDirs(conf: SparkConf)` utility method manages the creation of local directories and handles the precedence among the different configuration options, so we should see the same behavior whether we're running in local mode or on a worker.

It's kind of a pain to mock out environment variables in tests (no easy way to mock System.getenv), so I added a `private[spark]` method to SparkConf for accessing environment variables (by default, it just delegates to System.getenv).  By subclassing SparkConf and overriding this method, we can mock out SPARK_LOCAL_DIRS in tests.

I also fixed a typo in PySpark where we used `SPARK_LOCAL_DIR` instead of `SPARK_LOCAL_DIRS` (I think this was technically innocuous, but it seemed worth fixing).

[SPARK-3054][STREAMING] Add unit tests for Spark Sink.

This patch adds unit tests for Spark Sink.

It also removes the private[flume] for Spark Sink,
since the sink is instantiated from Flume configuration (looks like this is ignored by reflection which is used by
Flume, but we should still remove it anyway).
