> There are several issues with translating on set.
> (1) The most serious one is that if the user has both the deprecated and the 
> latest version of the same config set, then the value picked up by SparkConf 
> will be arbitrary. Why? Because during initialization of the conf we call 
> `conf.set` on each property in `sys.props` in an order arbitrarily defined by 
> Java. Instead, we should always use the value of the latest version of the 
> config if that is provided.
> (2) If we translate on set, then we must keep translating everywhere else. In 
> fact, the current code does not translate on remove, which means the 
> following won't work if X is deprecated:
> {code}
> conf.set(X, Y)
> conf.remove(X) // X is not in the conf
> {code}
> (3) Since we call `conf.set` on all configs when initializing the conf, we 
> print all deprecation warnings in the beginning. Elsewhere in Spark, however, 
> we warn the user when the deprecated config / option / env var is actually 
> being used.
> We should keep this consistent so the user won't expect to find all 
> deprecation messages in the beginning of his logs.
