[SPARK-4186] add binaryFiles and binaryRecords in Python

add binaryFiles() and binaryRecords() in Python
```
binaryFiles(self, path, minPartitions=None):
    :: Developer API ::

    Read a directory of binary files from HDFS, a local file system
    (available on all nodes), or any Hadoop-supported file system URI
    as a byte array. Each file is read as a single record and returned
    in a key-value pair, where the key is the path of each file, the
    value is the content of each file.

    Note: Small files are preferred, large file is also allowable, but
    may cause bad performance.

binaryRecords(self, path, recordLength):
    Load data from a flat binary file, assuming each record is a set of numbers
    with the specified numerical format (see ByteBuffer), and the number of
    bytes per record is constant.

    :param path: Directory to the input data files
    :param recordLength: The length at which to split the records
```
