Hello Kylin community,

As you know, Kylin 4.0 supports both Spark 2.4 and Spark 3.1 at the very
begining; Recently when we try to fix some security vulnerabilities (e.g,
CVE-2022-22978 <https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-hh32-7344-cg2f>), we
found that Spark 2 is hard to be compitable with recommended version of
Spring-core and Spring security.

Besides, we noticed that the latest Spark 2 release v2.4.8 was released on
May 17, 2021, which is almost 15 months ago. Which means it is not actively
maintained anymore.

So,  I propose Kylin 4 move to Spark 3 totally, and will not release
package for Spark 2 anymore. For the legacy users, please upgrade your
Spark.

Your comments are welcomed.
