[ZEPPELIN-716] protect the whole spark repl init process ### What is this PR for? ZeppelinContext may not be initialized properly in concurrent mode: When I create & run multiple notebooks using rest API concurrently, I can see such errors if the jobs trying to use ZeppelinContext: ``` <console>:23: error: not found: value z ``` I think this issue can be reproduced by: 1. create 4 - 5 new notebooks with content: `println(z)` 2. use rest API to run the newly created notebooks concurrently It seems the issue is gone after I expand the lock to protect the whole process of spark REPL initializing / binding. ### What type of PR is it? Bug Fix ### Todos ### What is the Jira issue? [ZEPPELIN-717](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-717) ### How should this be tested? 1. create 4 - 5 new notebooks with content: `println(z)` 2. use rest API to run the newly created notebooks concurrently ### Screenshots (if appropriate) ### Questions: * Does the licenses files need update? NO * Is there breaking changes for older versions? NO * Does this needs documentation?
