[SPARK-18161] [Python] Allow use of pickle to serialize > 4 GB objects
where available
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Since pickle protocol 4 (available in Python 3.4+) allows for serialization
of > 4 GB errors, use pickle protocol 4 when available in the Broadcast and
PickleSerializer classes.
## How was this patch tested?
This was tested through pyspark shell and serializing a large numpy array
with / without the changes.
