### 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.

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Add a non-intrusive button for python API documentation, which will remove ">>>" prompts and outputs of code - for easier copying of code.
For example: The below code-snippet in the document is difficult to copy due to ">>>" prompts
```
>>> l = [('Alice', 1)]
>>> spark.createDataFrame(l).collect()
[Row(_1='Alice', _2=1)]
```
Becomes this - After the copybutton in the corner of of code-block is pressed - which is easier to copy
```
l = [('Alice', 1)]
spark.createDataFrame(l).collect()
```
## File changes
Made changes to python/docs/conf.py and copybutton.js - thus only modifying sphinx frontend and no changes were made to the documentation itself- Build process for documentation remains the same.
copybutton.js -> This JS snippet was taken from the official python.org documentation site.
## How was this patch tested?
NA

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Mark ml.classification algorithms as experimental to match Scala algorithms, update PyDoc for for thresholds on `LogisticRegression` to have same level of info as Scala, and enable mathjax for PyDoc.

Closes#12938 from holdenk/SPARK-15162-SPARK-15164-update-some-pydocs.
We should have lint rules using sphinx to automatically catch the pydoc issues that are sometimes introduced.
Right now ./dev/lint-python will skip building the docs if sphinx isn't present - but it might make sense to fail hard - just a matter of if we want to insist all PySpark developers have sphinx present.

Using Sphinx to generate API docs for PySpark.
requirement: Sphinx
