SPARK-1156: allow user to login into a cluster without slaves

Reported in https://spark-project.atlassian.net/browse/SPARK-1156

The current spark-ec2 script doesn't allow user to login to a cluster without slaves. One of the issues brought by this behaviour is that when all the worker died, the user cannot even login to the cluster for debugging, etc.

SPARK-942: Do not materialize partitions when DISK_ONLY storage level is used

This is a port of a pull request original targeted at incubator-spark: https://github.com/apache/incubator-spark/pull/180

Essentially if a user returns a generative iterator (from a flatMap operation), when trying to persist the data, Spark would first unroll the iterator into an ArrayBuffer, and then try to figure out if it could store the data. In cases where the user provided an iterator that generated more data then available memory, this would case a crash. With this patch, if the user requests a persist with a 'StorageLevel.DISK_ONLY', the iterator will be unrolled as it is inputed into the serializer.

To do this, two changes where made:
1) The type of the 'values' argument in the putValues method of the BlockStore interface was changed from ArrayBuffer to Iterator (and all code interfacing with this method was modified to connect correctly.
2) The JavaSerializer now calls the ObjectOutputStream 'reset' method every 1000 objects. This was done because the ObjectOutputStream caches objects (thus preventing them from being GC'd) to write more compact serialization. If reset is never called, eventually the memory fills up, if it is called too often then the serialization streams become much larger because of redundant class descriptions.

This will allow BlockStores to have slightly different behaviors dependent on whether they get an Iterator or ArrayBuffer. In the case of the MemoryStore, it needs to duplicate and cache an Iterator into an ArrayBuffer, but if handed a ArrayBuffer, it can skip the duplication.
