    If I create a new `StreamingContext` using the constructor it will not be 
considered as an active one which can be retrieved from `getActiveOrCreate`. 
This should be clearly documented, as this might cause leaks like the one this 
PR is trying to prevent. Also, how would this work when we are recovering from 
a checkpoint? How does one tell that the one from checkpoint should be the 
active one?
