    @felixcheung OK, new implementation of # 3. Now works in two ways:
    1.  `family = "tweedie"` + `variancePower` + `linkPower`
    2. When `statmod` is available, `tweedie()`
    
    Please take another look. Thanks. 
    
    ```
    # 1. Use variancePower and linkPower directly
    > model <- spark.glm(training, Sepal_Width ~ Sepal_Length + Species,
    +                      family = "tweedie", variancePower = 1.2, linkPower = 
0.0)
    > summary(model)$coefficients
                         Estimate Std. Error    t value     Pr(>|t|)
    (Intercept)         0.6455411 0.07672839   8.413327 3.330669e-14

    # 2. Use statmod
    > library(statmod)
    > model <- spark.glm(training, Sepal_Width ~ Sepal_Length + Species, family 
= tweedie(1.2, 0))
    > summary(model)$coefficients
