    [SPARK-13848][SPARK-5185] Update to Py4J 0.9.2 in order to fix classloading 
issue

    This patch upgrades Py4J from 0.9.1 to 0.9.2 in order to include a patch 
which modifies Py4J to use the current thread's ContextClassLoader when 
performing reflection / class loading. This is necessary in order to fix 
[SPARK-5185](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5185), a longstanding 
issue affecting the use of `--jars` and `--packages` in PySpark.
    
    In order to demonstrate that the fix works, I removed the workarounds which 
were added as part of 
[SPARK-6027](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6027) / #4779 and 
other patches.
