    SPARK-1603: use auto-generated name in JobScheduler Actor

    When Jenkins is pretty busy, the test of the "stop gracefully" case in 
StreamingContextSuite sometimes failed with an unrelated change, the reason is 
that "JobScheduler" (the actor name) is not unique, so it fails to start a new 
actor. 
    
    The reason of this bug is that we assign a fixed name to the JobScheduler 
Actor, and we assume that the actor should be stopped when StreamingContext is 
stopped 
(https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/streaming/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/streaming/scheduler/JobScheduler.scala#L98),
 actually, "nearly everything related to akka is asynchronous", we call the 
stop() but get no guarantee on when the actor is really stopped
    
    so there is a possibility to have two "JobScheduler" in akka's namespace
    
    in this patch, I go with a pretty easy fix, use auto-generated name in the 
actor
