Implement ApproximateCountDistinct for SparkSql

Add the implementation for ApproximateCountDistinct to SparkSql. We use the HyperLogLog algorithm implemented in stream-lib, and do the count in two phases: 1) counting the number of distinct elements in each partitions, and 2) merge the HyperLogLog results from different partitions.

A simple serializer and test cases are added as well.
