Title: [SPARK-1439, SPARK-1440] Generate unified Scaladoc across projects and Javadocs

I used the sbt-unidoc plugin (https://github.com/sbt/sbt-unidoc) to create a unified Scaladoc of our public packages, and generate Javadocs as well. One limitation is that I haven't found an easy way to exclude packages in the Javadoc; there is a SBT task that identifies Java sources to run javadoc on, but it's been very difficult to modify it from outside to change what is set in the unidoc package. Some SBT-savvy people should help with this. The Javadoc site also lacks package-level descriptions and things like that, so we may want to look into that. We may decide not to post these right now if it's too limited compared to the Scala one.

Example of the built doc site: http://people.csail.mit.edu/matei/spark-unified-docs/
