Title: [SPARK-2601] [PySpark] Fix Py4J error when transforming pickleFiles

Similar to SPARK-1034, the problem was that Py4J didn’t cope well with the fake ClassTags used in the Java API. It doesn’t look like there’s any reason why PythonRDD needs to take a ClassTag, since it just ignores the type of the previous RDD, so I removed the type parameter and we no longer pass ClassTags from Python.
