    allCollect functions for RDD

     Two methods (`allCollect`, `allCollectBroadcast`) are added to `RDD[T]`, 
which output a new `RDD[Array[T]]` instance with each partition containing all 
of the records of the original RDD stored in a single `Array[T]` instance (the 
same as RDD.collect). This functionality can be useful in machine learning 
tasks that require sharing updated parameters across partitions.
    
    Method `allCollect` creates a new `AllCollectedRDD` while method 
`allCollectBroadcast` applies broadcasting. Both of them need collecting the 
data and therefore should deliver similar performance.
