Better explanation for how to use MIMA excludes.

This patch does a few things:
1. We have a file MimaExcludes.scala exclusively for excludes.
2. The test runner tells users about that file if a test fails.
3. I've added back the excludes used from 0.9->1.0. We should keep
   these in the project as an official audit trail of times where
   we decided to make exceptions.

[SPARK-1553] Alternating nonnegative least-squares

This pull request includes a nonnegative least-squares solver (NNLS) tailored to the kinds of small-scale problems that come up when training matrix factorisation models by alternating nonnegative least-squares (ANNLS).

The method used for the NNLS subproblems is based on the classical method of projected gradients.  There is a modification where, if the set of active constraints has not changed since the last iteration, a conjugate gradient step is considered and possibly rejected in favour of the gradient; this improves convergence once the optimal face has been located.

The NNLS solver is in `org.apache.spark.mllib.optimization.NNLSbyPCG`.

Avoid dynamic dispatching when unwrapping Hive data.

This is a follow up of PR #758.

The `unwrapHiveData` function is now composed statically before actual rows are scanned according to the field object inspector to avoid dynamic dispatching cost.

SPARK-2001 : Remove docs/spark-debugger.md from master

Per discussion in dev list:
"
Seemed like the spark-debugger.md is no longer accurate (see
http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/spark-debugger.html) and since it
was originally written Spark has evolved that makes the doc obsolete.
There are already work pending for new replay debugging (I could not
find the PR links for it) so I
With version control we could always reinstate the old doc if needed,
but as of today the doc is no longer reflect the current state of
Spark's RDD.

[SPARK-1912] fix compress memory issue during reduce

When we need to read a compressed block, we will first create a compress stream instance(LZF or Snappy) and use it to wrap that block.
Let's say a reducer task need to read 1000 local shuffle blocks, it will first prepare to read that 1000 blocks, which means create 1000 compression stream instance to wrap them. But the initialization of compression instance will allocate some memory and when we have many compression instance at the same time, it is a problem.
Actually reducer reads the shuffle blocks one by one, so we can do the compression instance initialization lazily.

Synthetic GraphX Benchmark

This PR accomplishes two things:

1. It introduces a Synthetic Benchmark application that generates an arbitrarily large log-normal graph and executes either PageRank or connected components on the graph.  This can be used to profile GraphX system on arbitrary clusters without access to large graph datasets

2. This PR improves the implementation of the log-normal graph generator.

[SPARK-1991] Support custom storage levels for vertices and edges

This PR adds support for specifying custom storage levels for the vertices and edges of a graph. This enables GraphX to handle graphs larger than memory size by specifying MEMORY_AND_DISK and then repartitioning the graph to use many small partitions, each of which does fit in memory. Spark will then automatically load partitions from disk as needed.

The user specifies the desired vertex and edge storage levels when building the graph by passing them to the graph constructor. These are then stored in the `targetStorageLevel` attribute of the VertexRDD and EdgeRDD respectively. Whenever GraphX needs to cache a VertexRDD or EdgeRDD (because it plans to use it more than once, for example), it uses the specified target storage level. Also, when the user calls `Graph#cache()`, the vertices and edges are persisted using their target storage levels.

In order to facilitate propagating the target storage levels across VertexRDD and EdgeRDD operations, we remove raw calls to the constructors and instead introduce the `withPartitionsRDD` and `withTargetStorageLevel` methods.

I tested this change by running PageRank and triangle count on a severely memory-constrained cluster (1 executor with 300 MB of memory, and a 1 GB graph). Before this PR, these algorithms used to fail with OutOfMemoryErrors. With this PR, and using the DISK_ONLY storage level, they succeed.
