[SPARK-5411] Allow SparkListeners to be specified in SparkConf and loaded when creating SparkContext

This patch introduces a new configuration option, `spark.extraListeners`, that allows SparkListeners to be specified in SparkConf and registered before the SparkContext is initialized.  From the configuration documentation:

> A comma-separated list of classes that implement SparkListener; when initializing SparkContext, instances of these classes will be created and registered with Spark's listener bus. If a class has a single-argument constructor that accepts a SparkConf, that constructor will be called; otherwise, a zero-argument constructor will be called. If no valid constructor can be found, the SparkContext creation will fail with an exception.

This motivation for this patch is to allow monitoring code to be easily injected into existing Spark programs without having to modify those programs' code.
