1. rename POBroadcast to POBroadcastSpark
2. suggest to set bcVarsMap as a static variables which may need not to
transfer to xxxConverter#convert to make less modifications.

> Currently, when optimize some kinds of JOIN, the indexed or sampling files
> are saved into HDFS. By setting the replication to a larger number, it serves
> as distributed cache.
> Spark's broadcast mechanism is suitable for this. It seems that we can add a
> physical operator to broadcast small RDDs.
> This will benefit the optimization of some specialized Joins, such as Skewed
> Join, Replicated Join and so on.
