@vanzin "reload" here meanings retrieving back `SparkConf` from checkpoint
file and using this retrieved `SparkConf` to create `SparkContext` when
restarting streaming application.
This is a streaming specific operation, the original purpose is to keep
restarted streaming application be the same state (as well as configurations)
as the previous stopped app. But in Spark we have some configurations which are
only meaningful in the current application, so recovering these for restarted
app is meaningless and will lead to some issues. And for this purpose Spark
Streaming maintains a `propertiesToReload` list which means these
configurations will be not be reloaded, instead they will be set during current
application-time.
