    this is a completely brand-new, from-scratch implementation.  
    
    parviz's old code was actually a Scala port of the Java-based Kinesis 
sample app found here:  
https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java/blob/master/src/samples/AmazonKinesisApplication/SampleRecordProcessor.java
 
    
    this was fine for a quick/dirty sample of kinesis functionality, but my 
goal was to make this code more reusable, testable, readable, configurable, 
production-ready, and well-documented.  the old code did not support the new 
Streaming 1.0 API and extras/ build structure (due to ASL-license).  i also 
updated the AWS Java SDK and Kinesis Client Libraries to their latest versions.
    
    here is parviz's PR for reference/comparison:  
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/223.
     i've addressed all of the comments provided in the old PR to speed up the 
acceptance of this new PR.
    
    thanks and i look forward to getting this merged!
