    [SPARK-7655][Core][SQL] Remove 
'scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global' in 'ask' and 
'BroadcastHashJoin'

    Because both `AkkaRpcEndpointRef.ask` and `BroadcastHashJoin` uses 
`scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext.Implicits.global`. However, because the 
tasks in `BroadcastHashJoin` are usually long-running tasks, which will occupy 
all threads in `global`. Then `ask` cannot get a chance to process the replies.
    
    For `ask`, actually the tasks are very simple, so we can use 
`MoreExecutors.sameThreadExecutor()`. For `BroadcastHashJoin`, it's better to 
use `ThreadUtils.newDaemonCachedThreadPool`.
