-----------------------------------------------

Yeah - i think we want to put Spark in the cache dir and use that as 
SPARK_HOME. Also we can take in a hadoop version as an optional flag in 
sparkR.session and if the JARs dont match we can fix the download.  

> Add a spark install function

> As described in the design doc we need to introduce a function to install 
> Spark in case the user directly downloads SparkR from CRAN.
> To do that we can introduce a install_spark function that takes in the 
> following arguments
> {code}
> hadoop_version
> url_to_use # defaults to apache
> local_dir # defaults to a cache dir
> {code} 
> Further more I think we can automatically run this from sparkR.init if we 
> find Spark home and the JARs missing.
