08617bd [Cheng Lian] Removed -Phive-thriftserver since this profile has been removed

Introduces a LOADING -> RUNNING ApplicationState transition and prevents Master from removing an Application with RUNNING Executors.

Two basic changes: 1) Instead of allowing MAX_NUM_RETRY abnormal Executor exits over the entire lifetime of the Application, allow that many since any Executor successfully began running the Application; 2) Don't remove the Application while Master still thinks that there are RUNNING Executors.

This should be fine as long as the ApplicationInfo doesn't believe any Executors are forever RUNNING when they are not.  I think that any non-RUNNING Executors will eventually no longer be RUNNING in Master's accounting, but another set of eyes should confirm that.  This PR also doesn't try to detect which nodes have gone rogue or to kill off bad Workers, so repeatedly failing Executors will continue to fail and fill up log files with failure reports as long as the Application keeps running.

This pull request creates a new BlockTransferService interface for block fetch/upload and refactors the existing ConnectionManager to implement BlockTransferService (NioBlockTransferService).

Most of the changes are simply moving code around. The main class to inspect is ShuffleBlockFetcherIterator.

Review guide:
- Most of the ConnectionManager code is now in network.cm package
- ManagedBuffer is a new buffer abstraction backed by several different implementations (file segment, nio ByteBuffer, Netty ByteBuf)
- BlockTransferService is the main internal interface introduced in this PR
- NioBlockTransferService implements BlockTransferService and replaces the old BlockManagerWorker
- ShuffleBlockFetcherIterator replaces the told BlockFetcherIterator to use the new interface

TODOs that should be separate PRs:
- Implement NettyBlockTransferService
- Finalize the API/semantics for ManagedBuffer.release()

Closes #2229 from ScrapCodes/SPARK-3337/quoting-shell-scripts and squashes the following commits:

d4ad660 [Prashant Sharma] SPARK-3337 Paranoid quoting in shell to allow install dirs with spaces within.

Summary:
1. Variable numBins for each feature [SPARK-3043]
2. Reduced data reshaping in aggregation [SPARK-3043]
3. Choose ordering for ordered categorical features adaptively [SPARK-3156]
4. Changed nodes to use 1-indexing [SPARK-3086]
5. Small clean-ups

Note: This PR looks bigger than it is since I moved several functions from inside findBestSplitsPerGroup to outside of it (to make it clear what was being serialized in the aggregation).

Speedups: This update helps most when many features use few bins but a few features use many bins.  Some example results on speedups with 2M examples, 3.5K features (15-worker EC2 cluster):
* Example where old code was reasonably efficient (1/2 continuous, 1/4 binary, 1/4 20-category): 164.813 --> 116.491 sec
* Example where old code wasted many bins (1/10 continuous, 81/100 binary, 9/100 20-category): 128.701 --> 39.334 sec

Details:

(1) Variable numBins for each feature [SPARK-3043]

DecisionTreeMetadata now computes a variable numBins for each feature.  It also tracks numSplits.

(2) Reduced data reshaping in aggregation [SPARK-3043]

Added DTStatsAggregator, a wrapper around the aggregate statistics array for easy but efficient indexing.
* Added ImpurityAggregator and ImpurityCalculator classes, to make DecisionTree code more oblivious to the type of impurity.
* Design note: I originally tried creating Impurity classes which stored data and storing the aggregates in an Array[Array[Array[Impurity]]].  However, this led to significant slowdowns, perhaps because of overhead in creating so many objects.

The aggregate statistics are never reshaped, and cumulative sums are computed in-place.

Updated the layout of aggregation functions.  The update simplifies things by (1) dividing features into ordered/unordered (instead of ordered/unordered/continuous) and (2) making use of the DTStatsAggregator for indexing.
For this update, the following functions were refactored:
* updateBinForOrderedFeature
* updateBinForUnorderedFeature
* binaryOrNotCategoricalBinSeqOp
* multiclassWithCategoricalBinSeqOp
* regressionBinSeqOp
The above 5 functions were replaced with:
* orderedBinSeqOp
* someUnorderedBinSeqOp

Other changes:
* calculateGainForSplit now treats all feature types the same way.
* Eliminated extractLeftRightNodeAggregates.

(3) Choose ordering for ordered categorical features adaptively [SPARK-3156]

Updated binsToBestSplit():
* This now computes cumulative sums of stats for ordered features.
* For ordered categorical features, it chooses an ordering for categories. (This uses to be done by findSplitsBins.)
* Uses iterators to shorten code and avoid building an Array[Array[InformationGainStats]].

Side effects:
* In findSplitsBins: A sample of the data is only taken for data with continuous features.  It is not needed for data with only categorical features.
* In findSplitsBins: splits and bins are no longer pre-computed for ordered categorical features since they are not needed.
* TreePoint binning is simpler for categorical features.

(4) Changed nodes to use 1-indexing [SPARK-3086]

Nodes used to be indexed from 0.  Now they are indexed from 1.
Node indexing functions are now collected in object Node (Node.scala).

(5) Small clean-ups

Eliminated functions extractNodeInfo() and extractInfoForLowerLevels() to reduce duplicate code.
Eliminated InvalidBinIndex since it is no longer used.

By merging #2268, which bumped the Spark version to 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT, I inadvertently broke the Mima binary compatibility tests.  The issue is that we were comparing 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT against Spark 1.0.0 without using any Mima excludes.  The right long-term fix for this is probably to publish nightly snapshots on Maven central and change the master branch to test binary compatibility against the current release candidate branch's snapshots until that release is finalized.

As a short-term fix until 1.1.0 is published on Maven central, I've configured the build to test the master branch for binary compatibility against the 1.1.0-RC4 jars.  I'll loop back and remove the Apache staging repo as soon as 1.1.0 final is available.

Previously parent stages had higher stage id, but parent stages are executed first. This pull request changes the behavior so parent stages would have lower stage id.

For example, command:
```scala
sc.parallelize(1 to 10).map(x=>(x,x)).reduceByKey(_+_).count
```
breaks down into 2 stages.

The underline JavaRDD for PipelineRDD is created lazily, it's delayed until call _jrdd.

The id of JavaRDD is cached as `_id`, it saves a RPC call in py4j for later calls.

This PR makes two minor changes to the `spark-ec2` script:

1. The script's input parameter default values are duplicated into the help text. This is unnecessary. This PR replaces the duplicated info with the appropriate `optparse`  placeholder.
2. The default Spark version currently needs to be updated by hand during each release, which is known to be a faulty process. This PR places that default value in an easy-to-spot place.

In the Jenkins console output, `curl` gives us mountains of `#` symbols as it tries to show its download progress.

I don't think this is useful so I've changed things to suppress these progress bars. If there is actually some use to this, feel free to reject this proposal.

Instead of jumping straight from 1 partition to all partitions, do exponential
growth and double the number of partitions to attempt each time instead.
