ZEPPELIN-1411. UDF with pyspark not working - object has no attribute
'parseDataType'
### What is this PR for?
The root cause is that SQLContext's signature changes in spark 2.0.
Spark 1.6
```
def __init__(self, sparkContext, sqlContext=None):
```
Spark 2.0
```
def __init__(self, sparkContext, sparkSession=None, jsqlContext=None):
```
So we need to create SQLContext using named parameters, otherwise it would
take intp.getSQLContext() as sparkSession which cause the issue.
