I think `len(rdd)` has the potential to be confused with `rdd.count()`,
since calling `len()` on a Python collection usually returns the size of that
collection.
I also agree that we shouldn't expose Java `Partition` objects to users.
Is there any reason to expose `Partition` objects besides allowing
`len(rdd.partitions())` to work? If not, I'm not sure that we should add this
feature.
