Subject: [PATCH] [SPARK-2945][YARN][Doc]add doc for spark.executor.instances

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2945

spark.executor.instances works. As this JIRA recommended, we should add docs for this common config.

Author: WangTaoTheTonic <wangtao111@huawei.com>

Closes #4350 from WangTaoTheTonic/SPARK-2945 and squashes the following commits:

4c3913a [WangTaoTheTonic] not compatible with dynamic allocation
5fa9c46 [WangTaoTheTonic] add doc for spark.executor.instances
