Apache Spark is a very popular Big Data processing engine. The latest release,
on 2nd Oct 2015, was 1.5.1, but we still have 1.2.0 in FreeBSD ports. There
have been important improvements in between, for instance spark data frames in
1.3.0
(https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.3.0/sql-programming-guide.html#upgrading-from-spark-sql-10-12-to-13).

Besides, the port depends on devel/hadoop2 which is currently 2.7.1, but
devel/spark/Makefile explicitly hardcodes 2.4.1 as hadoop version. Maybe we
should catch-up with hadoop.

Thank you very much.
