[SPARK-2608][Core] Fixed command line option passing issue over Mesos via SPARK_EXECUTOR_OPTS

This is another try after #2145 to fix [SPARK-2608](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2608).

### Basic Idea

The basic idea is to pass `extraJavaOpts` and `extraLibraryPath` together via environment variable `SPARK_EXECUTOR_OPTS`. This variable is recognized by `spark-class` and not used anywhere else. In this way, we still launch Mesos executors with `spark-class`/`spark-executor`, but avoids the executor side Spark home issue.

### Known Issue

Quoted string with spaces is not allowed in either `extraJavaOpts` or `extraLibraryPath` when using Spark over Mesos. The reason is that Mesos passes the whole command line as a single string argument to `sh -c` to start the executor, and this makes shell string escaping non-trivial to handle. This should be fixed in a later release.

### Background

Classes in package `org.apache.spark.deploy` shouldn't be used as they assume Spark is deployed in standalone mode, and give wrong executor side Spark home directory. Please refer to comments in #2145 for more details.
