    [SPARK-6422][STREAMING] support customized actor system for actor-based 
receiver

    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6422
    
    To disable the Akka's fault detection system, we currently set large 
default values for Akka' transport failure detector threshold and heartbeat 
interval, and discourage users to customize these values..
    Meanwhile, we are trying to eliminate the dependency to Akka, e.g. we are 
trying to implement a general RPC interface 
(https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/4588), etc.
    
    Based on the above facts, enabling a customized Akka system for actor-based 
receiver has at least two benefits: 
    
    1.  users can easily set values related to failure detector which are more 
practical in general Akka usage scenario; 
    2. reduce the dependency level to Akka, (in future, we can even move 
Actor-based receiver to external project)
    
    
    This patch proposes to enable the user to be able to configure  the 
customized Akka system by passing `spark.streaming.receiver.akka.*` 
parameters...if these parameters do not exist, then we fall back to the Spark's 
Actor System
