[SQL] Minor: Introduce SchemaRDD#aggregate() for simple aggregations


```scala
rdd.aggregate(Sum('val))
```
is just shorthand for

```scala
rdd.groupBy()(Sum('val))
```

but seems be more natural than doing a groupBy with no grouping expressions when you really just want an aggregation over all rows.

Did not add a JavaSchemaRDD or Python API, as these seem to be lacking several other methods like groupBy() already -- leaving that cleanup for future patches.

Closes #874 from aarondav/schemardd and squashes the following commits:
