@vanzin Your proposal about having SparkSubmit calling
`System.setProperty(spark.app.name)` can be made clean if we just always
convert `--name` to `spark.app.name`, which is what the SparkSubmit usage
currently suggests but does not fulfill. I will change this in a separate PR to
address SPARK-1755.
As for this PR, the changes LGTM.
