## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This pr updated `lz4-java` to the latest (v1.4.0) and removed custom `LZ4BlockInputStream`. We currently use custom `LZ4BlockInputStream` to read concatenated byte stream in shuffle. But, this functionality has been implemented in the latest lz4-java (https://github.com/lz4/lz4-java/pull/105). So, we might update the latest to remove the custom `LZ4BlockInputStream`.
Major diffs between the latest release and v1.3.0 in the master are as follows (62f7547abb...6d4693f562);
- fixed NPE in XXHashFactory similarly
- Don't place resources in default package to support shading
- Fixes ByteBuffer methods failing to apply arrayOffset() for array-backed
- Try to load lz4-java from java.library.path, then fallback to bundled
- Add ppc64le binary
- Add s390x JNI binding
- Add basic LZ4 Frame v1.5.0 support
- enable aarch64 support for lz4-java
- Allow unsafeInstance() for ppc64le archiecture
- Add unsafeInstance support for AArch64
- Support 64-bit JNI build on Solaris
- Avoid over-allocating a buffer
- Allow EndMark to be incompressible for LZ4FrameInputStream.
- Concat byte stream

When I scan through the pom.xml of sub projects, I found this warning as below and attached screenshot
```
Definition of groupId is redundant, because it's inherited from the parent
```
I've tried to remove some of the lines with groupId definition, and the build on my local machine is still ok.
```
<groupId>org.apache.spark</groupId>
```
As I just find now `<maven.version>3.3.9</maven.version>` is being used in Spark 2.x, and Maven-3 supports versionless parent elements: Maven 3 will remove the need to specify the parent version in sub modules. THIS is great (in Maven 3.1).
