Streaming mllib [SPARK-2438][MLLIB]

This PR implements a streaming linear regression analysis, in which a linear regression model is trained online as new data arrive. The design is based on discussions with tdas and mengxr, in which we determined how to add this functionality in a general way, with minimal changes to existing libraries.

__Summary of additions:__

_StreamingLinearAlgorithm_
- An abstract class for fitting generalized linear models online to streaming data, including training on (and updating) a model, and making predictions.

_StreamingLinearRegressionWithSGD_
- Class and companion object for running streaming linear regression

_StreamingLinearRegressionTestSuite_
- Unit tests

_StreamingLinearRegression_
- Example use case: fitting a model online to data from one stream, and making predictions on other data

__Notes__
- If this looks good, I can use the StreamingLinearAlgorithm class to easily implement other analyses that follow the same logic (Ridge, Lasso, Logistic, SVM).

StatCounter on NumPy arrays [PYSPARK][SPARK-2012]

These changes allow StatCounters to work properly on NumPy arrays, to fix the issue reported here  (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2012).

If NumPy is installed, the NumPy functions ``maximum``, ``minimum``, and ``sqrt``, which work on arrays, are used to merge statistics. If not, we fall back on scalar operators, so it will work on arrays with NumPy, but will also work without NumPy.

New unit tests added, along with a check for NumPy in the tests.

[SPARK-2316] Avoid O(blocks) operations in listeners

The existing code in `StorageUtils` is not the most efficient. Every time we want to update an `RDDInfo` we end up iterating through all blocks on all block managers just to discard most of them. The symptoms manifest themselves in the bountiful UI bugs observed in the wild. Many of these bugs are caused by the slow consumption of events in `LiveListenerBus`, which frequently leads to the event queue overflowing and `SparkListenerEvent`s being dropped on the floor. The changes made in this PR avoid this by first filtering out only the blocks relevant to us before computing storage information from them.

It's worth a mention that this corner of the Spark code is also not very well-tested at all. The bulk of the changes in this PR (more than 60%) is actually test cases for the various logic in `StorageUtils.scala` as well as `StorageTab.scala`. These will eventually be extended to cover the various listeners that constitute the `SparkUI`.

[SPARK-2454] Do not ship spark home to Workers

When standalone Workers launch executors, they inherit the Spark home set by the driver. This means if the worker machines do not share the same directory structure as the driver node, the Workers will attempt to run scripts (e.g. bin/compute-classpath.sh) that do not exist locally and fail. This is a common scenario if the driver is launched from outside of the cluster.

The solution is to simply not pass the driver's Spark home to the Workers. This PR further makes an attempt to avoid overloading the usages of `spark.home`, which is now only used for setting executor Spark home on Mesos and in python.

This is based on top of #1392 and originally reported by YanTangZhai. Tested on standalone cluster.

HOTFIX: Fixing test error in maven for flume-sink.

We needed to add an explicit dependency on scalatest since this
module will not get it from spark core like others do.
HOTFIX: Fix concurrency issue in FlumePollingStreamSuite.

This has been failing on master. One possible cause is that the port
gets contended if multiple test runs happen concurrently and they
hit this test at the same time. Since this test takes a long time
(60 seconds) that's very plausible. This patch randomizes the port
used in this test to avoid contention.

[SPARK-2478] [mllib] DecisionTree Python API

Added experimental Python API for Decision Trees.

API:
* class DecisionTreeModel
** predict() for single examples and RDDs, taking both feature vectors and LabeledPoints
** numNodes()
** depth()
** __str__()
* class DecisionTree
** trainClassifier()
** trainRegressor()
** train()

Examples and testing:
* Added example testing classification and regression with batch prediction: examples/src/main/python/mllib/tree.py
* Have also tested example usage in doc of python/pyspark/mllib/tree.py which tests single-example prediction with dense and sparse vectors

Also: Small bug fix in python/pyspark/mllib/_common.py: In _linear_predictor_typecheck, changed check for RDD to use isinstance() instead of type() in order to catch RDD subclasses.

[SQL] Set outputPartitioning of BroadcastHashJoin correctly.

I think we will not generate the plan triggering this bug at this moment. But, let me explain it...

Right now, we are using `left.outputPartitioning` as the `outputPartitioning` of a `BroadcastHashJoin`. We may have a wrong physical plan for cases like...
```sql
SELECT l.key, count(*)
FROM (SELECT key, count(*) as cnt
      FROM src
      GROUP BY key) l // This is buildPlan
JOIN r // This is the streamedPlan
ON (l.cnt = r.value)
GROUP BY l.key
```
Let's say we have a `BroadcastHashJoin` on `l` and `r`. For this case, we will pick `l`'s `outputPartitioning` for the `outputPartitioning`of the `BroadcastHashJoin` on `l` and `r`. Also, because the last `GROUP BY` is using `l.key` as the key, we will not introduce an `Exchange` for this aggregation. However, `r`'s outputPartitioning may not match the required distribution of the last `GROUP BY` and we fail to group data correctly.

JIRA is being reindexed. I will create a JIRA ticket once it is back online.
