okay - I wanted to avoid adding code to the new SparkSession class to
handle this compatibility issue arising out of the now deprecated SQLContext
class. Looks like the python impl of SparkSession builder does not allow a
SparkContext to be passed in. Do we want to change the public builder interface
for this ?
