Standalone Scheduler fault tolerance using ZooKeeper
This patch implements full distributed fault tolerance for standalone scheduler Masters.
There is only one master Leader at a time, which is actively serving scheduling
requests. If this Leader crashes, another master will eventually be elected, reconstruct
the state from the first Master, and continue serving scheduling requests.
Leader election is performed using the ZooKeeper leader election pattern. We try to minimize
the use of ZooKeeper and the assumptions about ZooKeeper's behavior, so there is a layer of
retries and session monitoring on top of the ZooKeeper client.
Master failover follows directly from the single-node Master recovery via the file
system (patch d5a96fe), save that the Master state is stored in ZooKeeper instead.
Configuration:
By default, no recovery mechanism is enabled (spark.deploy.recoveryMode = NONE).
By setting spark.deploy.recoveryMode to ZOOKEEPER and setting spark.deploy.zookeeper.url
to an appropriate ZooKeeper URL, ZooKeeper recovery mode is enabled.
By setting spark.deploy.recoveryMode to FILESYSTEM and setting spark.deploy.recoveryDirectory
to an appropriate directory accessible by the Master, we will keep the behavior of from d5a96fe.
Additionally, places where a Master could be specificied by a spark:// url can now take
comma-delimited lists to specify backup masters. Note that this is only used for registration
of NEW Workers and application Clients. Once a Worker or Client has registered with the
Master Leader, it is "in the system" and will never need to register again.

Forthcoming:
Documentation, tests (! - only ad hoc testing has been performed so far)
I do not intend for this commit to be merged until tests are added, but this patch should
still be mostly reviewable until then.
Due to this change in HDFS:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7549
there is a bug when using the new assembly builds. The symptom is that any HDFS access
results in an exception saying "No filesystem for scheme 'hdfs'". This adds a merge
strategy in the assembly build which fixes the problem.
This includes the following changes:
- The "assembly" package now builds in Maven by default, and creates an
assembly containing both hadoop-client and Spark, unlike the old
BigTop distribution assembly that skipped hadoop-client
- There is now a bigtop-dist package to build the old BigTop assembly
- The repl-bin package is no longer built by default since the scripts
don't reply on it; instead it can be enabled with -Prepl-bin
- Py4J is now included in the assembly/lib folder as a local Maven repo,
so that the Maven package can link to it
- run-example now adds the original Spark classpath as well because the
Maven examples assembly lists spark-core and such as provided
- The various Maven projects add a spark-yarn dependency correctly
This commit makes Spark invocation saner by using an assembly JAR to
find all of Spark's dependencies instead of adding all the JARs in
lib_managed. It also packages the examples into an assembly and uses
that as SPARK_EXAMPLES_JAR. Finally, it replaces the old "run" script
with two better-named scripts: "run-examples" for examples, and
"spark-class" for Spark internal classes (e.g. REPL, master, etc). This
is also designed to minimize the confusion people have in trying to use
"run" to run their own classes; it's not meant to do that, but now at
least if they look at it, they can modify run-examples to do a decent
job for them.
As part of this, Bagel's examples are also now properly moved to the
examples package instead of bagel.
It made the JSON creation slightly more complicated, but reduces one external dependency. The scala library also properly escape "/" (which lift-json doesn't).
