The exit() builtin is only for interactive use. applications should use sys.exit().
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
All usage of the builtin `exit()` function is replaced by `sys.exit()`.
## How was this patch tested?
I ran `python/run-tests`.

This patch improves the window function frame boundary API to make it more obvious to read and to use. The two high level changes are:
1. Create Window.currentRow, Window.unboundedPreceding, Window.unboundedFollowing to indicate the special values in frame boundaries. These methods map to the special integral values so we are not breaking backward compatibility here. This change makes the frame boundaries more self-evident (instead of Long.MinValue, it becomes Window.unboundedPreceding).
2. In Python, for any value less than or equal to JVM's Long.MinValue, treat it as Window.unboundedPreceding. For any value larger than or equal to JVM's Long.MaxValue, treat it as Window.unboundedFollowing. Before this change, if the user specifies any value that is less than Long.MinValue but not -sys.maxsize (e.g. -sys.maxsize + 1), the number we pass over to the JVM would overflow, resulting in a frame that does not make sense.
Code example required to specify a frame before this patch:
```
Window.rowsBetween(-Long.MinValue, 0)
```
While the above code should still work, the new way is more obvious to read:
```
Window.rowsBetween(Window.unboundedPreceding, Window.currentRow)
```
## How was this patch tested?
- Updated DataFrameWindowSuite (for Scala/Java)
- Updated test_window_functions_cumulative_sum (for Python)
- Renamed DataFrameWindowSuite DataFrameWindowFunctionsSuite to better reflect its purpose

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
When I was creating the example code for SPARK-10496, I realized it was pretty convoluted to define the frame boundaries for window functions when there is no partition column or ordering column. The reason is that we don't provide a way to create a WindowSpec directly with the frame boundaries. We can trivially improve this by adding rowsBetween and rangeBetween to Window object.
As an example, to compute cumulative sum using the natural ordering, before this pr:
```
df.select('key, sum("value").over(Window.partitionBy(lit(1)).rowsBetween(Long.MinValue, 0)))
```
After this pr:
```
df.select('key, sum("value").over(Window.rowsBetween(Long.MinValue, 0)))
```
Note that you could argue there is no point specifying a window frame without partitionBy/orderBy -- but it is strange that only rowsBetween and rangeBetween are not the only two APIs not available.
This also fixes https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17656 (removing _root_.scala).
## How was this patch tested?
Added test cases to compute cumulative sum in DataFrameWindowSuite for Scala/Java and tests.py for Python.
