SPARK-3: The spark-shell fails under a dist. Problem: The spark-shell will fail to start when Spark is deployed using the tar.gz file built by ./make-distribution. The problem is generated by the spark-class shell that fails to setup a CLASSPATH if Spark is a RELEASE. Fix: The script `spark-class` now sets the CLASSPATH if it is a RELEASE/dist by pointing to the only assembly that should exist in the `./jars` Environment: *NIX environments. A similar change should be applied to `spark-class.cmd`.
