The default constructor loads default properties, which can fail the test.

Remove Typesafe Config usage and conf files to fix nested property names
With Typesafe Config we had the subtle problem of no longer allowing
nested property names, which are used for a few of our properties:

This PR is for branch 0.9 but should be added into master too.

Also replaced SparkConf.getOrElse with just a "get" that takes a default
value, and added getInt, getLong, etc to make code that uses this
simpler later on.
The test in context.py created two different instances of the
SparkContext class by copying "globals", so that some tests can have a
global "sc" object and others can try initializing their own contexts.
This led to two JVM gateways being created since SparkConf also looked
at pyspark.context.SparkContext to get the JVM.
