Super minor: Add require for mergeCombiners in combineByKey We changed the behavior in 0.9.0 from requiring that mergeCombiners be null when mapSideCombine was false to requiring that mergeCombiners *never* be null, for external sorting. This patch adds a require() to make this behavior change explicitly messaged rather than resulting in a NPE.
