## Proposed Changes
* Update the list of "important classes" in `pyspark.sql` to match 2.0.
* Fix references to `UDFRegistration` so that the class shows up in the docs. It currently [doesn't](http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/pyspark.sql.html).
* Remove some unnecessary whitespace in the Python RST doc files.
I reused the [existing JIRA](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-16772) I created last week for similar API doc fixes.
## How was this patch tested?
* I ran `lint-python` successfully.
* I ran `make clean build` on the Python docs and confirmed the results are as expected locally in my browser.

Using Sphinx to generate API docs for PySpark.
requirement: Sphinx
```
$ cd python/docs/
$ make html
```
The generated API docs will be located at python/docs/_build/html/index.html
It can co-exists with those generated by Epydoc.
This is the first working version, after merging in, then we can continue to improve it and replace the epydoc finally.
