### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This PR proposes to restructure and refine the Python dependency management page.
I lately wrote a blog post which will be published soon, and decided contribute some of the contents back to PySpark documentation.
FWIW, it has been reviewed by some tech writers and engineers.
I built the site for making the review easier: https://hyukjin-spark.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user_guide/python_packaging.html
### Why are the changes needed?
For better documentation.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
It's doc change but only in unreleased bracnhs for now.
### How was this patch tested?
I manually built the docs as:
```bash
cd python/docs
make clean html
open
```

### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
TL;DR:
- This PR completes the support of archives in Spark itself instead of Yarn-only
- It makes `--archives` option work in other cluster modes too and adds `spark.archives` configuration.
- After this PR, PySpark users can leverage Conda to ship Python packages together as below:
```python
conda create -y -n pyspark_env -c conda-forge pyarrow==2.0.0 pandas==1.1.4 conda-pack==0.5.0
conda activate pyspark_env
conda pack -f -o pyspark_env.tar.gz
PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON=python PYSPARK_PYTHON=./environment/bin/python pyspark --archives pyspark_env.tar.gz#environment
```
- Issue a warning that undocumented and hidden behavior of partial archive handling in `spark.files` / `SparkContext.addFile` will be deprecated, and users can use `spark.archives` and `SparkContext.addArchive`.
This PR proposes to add Spark's native `--archives` in Spark submit, and `spark.archives` configuration. Currently, both are supported only in Yarn mode:
```bash
./bin/spark-submit --help
```
```
Options:
...
Spark on YARN only:
--queue QUEUE_NAME The YARN queue to submit to (Default: "default").
--archives ARCHIVES Comma separated list of archives to be extracted into the
working directory of each executor.
```
This `archives` feature is useful often when you have to ship a directory and unpack into executors. One example is native libraries to use e.g. JNI. Another example is to ship Python packages together by Conda environment.
Especially for Conda, PySpark currently does not have a nice way to ship a package that works in general, please see also https://hyukjin-spark.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user_guide/python_packaging.html#using-zipped-virtual-environment (PySpark new documentation demo for 3.1.0).
The neatest way is arguably to use Conda environment by shipping zipped Conda environment but this is currently dependent on this archive feature. NOTE that we are able to use `spark.files` by relying on its undocumented behaviour that untars `tar.gz` but I don't think we should document such ways and promote people to more rely on it.
Also, note that this PR does not target to add the feature parity of `spark.files.overwrite`, `spark.files.useFetchCache`, etc. yet. I documented that this is an experimental feature as well.
### Why are the changes needed?
To complete the feature parity, and to provide a better support of shipping Python libraries together with Conda env.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Yes, this makes `--archives` works in Spark instead of Yarn-only, and adds a new configuration `spark.archives`.
### How was this patch tested?
I added unittests. Also, manually tested in standalone cluster, local-cluster, and local modes.

### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Upgrade Apache Arrow to version 1.0.1 for the Java dependency and increase minimum version of PyArrow to 1.0.0.
This release marks a transition to binary stability of the columnar format (which was already informally backward-compatible going back to December 2017) and a transition to Semantic Versioning for the Arrow software libraries. Also note that the Java arrow-memory artifact has been split to separate dependence on netty-buffer and allow users to select an allocator. Spark will continue to use `arrow-memory-netty` to maintain performance benefits.
Version 1.0.0 - 1.0.0 include the following selected fixes/improvements relevant to Spark users:
ARROW-9300 - [Java] Separate Netty Memory to its own module
ARROW-9272 - [C++][Python] Reduce complexity in python to arrow conversion
ARROW-9016 - [Java] Remove direct references to Netty/Unsafe Allocators
ARROW-8664 - [Java] Add skip null check to all Vector types
ARROW-8485 - [Integration][Java] Implement extension types integration
ARROW-8434 - [C++] Ipc RecordBatchFileReader deserializes the Schema multiple times
ARROW-8314 - [Python] Provide a method to select a subset of columns of a Table
ARROW-8230 - [Java] Move Netty memory manager into a separate module
ARROW-8229 - [Java] Move ArrowBuf into the Arrow package
ARROW-7955 - [Java] Support large buffer for file/stream IPC
ARROW-7831 - [Java] unnecessary buffer allocation when calling splitAndTransferTo on variable width vectors
ARROW-6111 - [Java] Support LargeVarChar and LargeBinary types and add integration test with C++
ARROW-6110 - [Java] Support LargeList Type and add integration test with C++
ARROW-5760 - [C++] Optimize Take implementation
ARROW-300 - [Format] Add body buffer compression option to IPC message protocol using LZ4 or ZSTD
ARROW-9098 - RecordBatch::ToStructArray cannot handle record batches with 0 column
ARROW-9066 - [Python] Raise correct error in isnull()
ARROW-9223 - [Python] Fix to_pandas() export for timestamps within structs
ARROW-9195 - [Java] Wrong usage of Unsafe.get from bytearray in ByteFunctionsHelper class
ARROW-7610 - [Java] Finish support for 64 bit int allocations
ARROW-8115 - [Python] Conversion when mixing NaT and datetime objects not working
ARROW-8392 - [Java] Fix overflow related corner cases for vector value comparison
ARROW-8537 - [C++] Performance regression from ARROW-8523
ARROW-8803 - [Java] Row count should be set before loading buffers in VectorLoader
ARROW-8911 - [C++] Slicing a ChunkedArray with zero chunks segfaults

### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This PR proposes to redesign the PySpark documentation.
I made a demo site to make it easier to review: https://hyukjin-spark.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/index.html.
Here is the initial draft for the final PySpark docs shape: https://hyukjin-spark.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html.
In more details, this PR proposes:
1. Use [pydata_sphinx_theme](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pydata-sphinx-theme) theme - [pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/) and [Koalas](https://koalas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) use this theme. The CSS overwrite is ported from Koalas. The colours in the CSS were actually chosen by designers to use in Spark.
2. Use the Sphinx option to separate `source` and `build` directories as the documentation pages will likely grow.
3. Port current API documentation into the new style. It mimics Koalas and pandas to use the theme most effectively.
One disadvantage of this approach is that you should list up APIs or classes; however, I think this isn't a big issue in PySpark since we're being conservative on adding APIs. I also intentionally listed classes only instead of functions in ML and MLlib to make it relatively easier to manage.
### Why are the changes needed?
Often I hear the complaints, from the users, that current PySpark documentation is pretty messy to read - https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/index.html compared other projects such as [pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/) and [Koalas](https://koalas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
It would be nicer if we can make it more organised instead of just listing all classes, methods and attributes to make it easier to navigate.
Also, the documentation has been there from almost the very first version of PySpark. Maybe it's time to update it.
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
Yes, PySpark API documentation will be redesigned.
### How was this patch tested?
Manually tested, and the demo site was made to show.
