This surroungs the complete worker code in a try/except block so we catch any error that arrives. An example would be the depickling failing for some reason

Added example Python code for sort

I added an example Python code for sort. Right now, PySpark has limited examples for new people willing to use the project. This example code sorts integers stored in a file. I was able to sort 5 million, 10 million and 25 million integers with this code.

Version number to 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT

Since 0.9.0-incubating is done and out the door, we shouldn't be building 0.9.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT anymore.

    added repartition function to python API.

This fixes SPARK-1043, a bug introduced in 0.9.0
where PySpark couldn't serialize strings > 64kB.

This fix was written by @tyro89 and @bouk in #512.
This commit squashes and rebases their pull request
in order to fix some merge conflicts.

Also, replace the last reference to it in the docs.

This fixes SPARK-1026.

Remove Typesafe Config usage and conf files to fix nested property names

With Typesafe Config we had the subtle problem of no longer allowing
nested property names, which are used for a few of our properties:

This PR is for branch 0.9 but should be added into master too.

This helps in case the exception happened while serializing a record to
be sent to Java, leaving the stream to Java in an inconsistent state
where PythonRDD won't be able to read the error.

We've used camel case in other Spark methods so it felt reasonable to
keep using it here and make the code match Scala/Java as much as
possible. Note that parameter names matter in Python because it allows
passing optional parameters by name.

- Added a Python wrapper for Naive Bayes
- Updated the Scala Naive Bayes to match the style of our other
  algorithms better and in particular make it easier to call from Java
  (added builder pattern, removed default value in train method)
- Updated Python MLlib functions to not require a SparkContext; we can
  get that from the RDD the user gives
- Added a toString method in LabeledPoint
- Made the Python MLlib tests run as part of run-tests as well (before
  they could only be run individually through each file)

Closes #316

Also replaced SparkConf.getOrElse with just a "get" that takes a default
value, and added getInt, getLong, etc to make code that uses this
simpler later on.

tests so we don't get the test spark.conf on the classpath.

The test in context.py created two different instances of the
SparkContext class by copying "globals", so that some tests can have a
global "sc" object and others can try initializing their own contexts.
This led to two JVM gateways being created since SparkConf also looked
at pyspark.context.SparkContext to get the JVM.
