[SPARK-15942][REPL] Unblock `:reset` command in REPL.

## What changes were proposed in this pull
(Paste from JIRA issue.)
As a follow up for SPARK-15697, I have following semantics for `:reset` command.
On `:reset` we forget all that user has done but not the initialization of spark. To avoid confusion or make it more clear, we show the message `spark` and `sc` are not erased, infact they are in same state as they were left by previous operations done by the user.
While doing above, somewhere I felt that this is not usually what reset means. But an accidental shutdown of a cluster can be very costly, so may be in that sense this is less surprising and still useful.

## How was this patch tested?

Manually, by calling `:reset` command, by both altering the state of SparkContext and creating some local variables.
