[SPARK-611] Display executor thread dumps in web UI

This patch allows executor thread dumps to be collected on-demand and viewed in the Spark web UI.

The thread dumps are collected using Thread.getAllStackTraces().  To allow remote thread dumps to be triggered from the web UI, I added a new `ExecutorActor` that runs inside of the Executor actor system and responds to RPCs from the driver.  The driver's mechanism for obtaining a reference to this actor is a little bit hacky: it uses the block manager master actor to determine the host/port of the executor actor systems in order to construct ActorRefs to ExecutorActor.  Unfortunately, I couldn't find a much cleaner way to do this without a big refactoring of the executor -> driver communication.
