Current Spark requires Maven 3.3.3+

Ubuntu trusty delivers Maven 3.0.5 (http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/maven).

Requirement on Maven 3.3.3+ was added in apache/spark@9d1c025

We will have to review all the dependencies for the 2.0 release and make note of added requirement of newer Maven 3.3.3 for newer versions of Spark greater than 1.5

For the time being, I've downloaded the 3.3.3 binary distribution and modified $PATH accordingly.

Builds fine afterwards.

Excellent stuff. Thanks.
