If classes implementing Serializable or Externalizable interfaces throw exceptions other than IOException or ClassNotFoundException from their (de)serialization methods, then this results in an unhelpful "IOException: unexpected exception type" rather than the actual exception that produced the (de)serialization error. This patch fixes this by adding a utility method that re-wraps any uncaught exceptions in IOException (unless they are already instances of IOException). Author: Josh Rosen <joshrosen@databricks.com> Closes #2932 from JoshRosen/SPARK-4080 and squashes the following commits: cd3a9be [Josh Rosen] [SPARK-4080] Only throw IOException from [write|read][Object|External].
