    @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.
