SPARK-1727. Correct small compile errors, typos, and markdown issues in (primarly) MLlib docs

While play-testing the Scala and Java code examples in the MLlib docs, I noticed a number of small compile errors, and some typos. This led to finding and fixing a few similar items in other docs.

Then in the course of building the site docs to check the result, I found a few small suggestions for the build instructions. I also found a few more formatting and markdown issues uncovered when I accidentally used maruku instead of kramdown.

Closes #653 from srowen/SPARK-1727 and squashes the following commits:

6e7c38a [Sean Owen] Final doc updates - one more compile error, and use of mean instead of sum and count
8f5e847 [Sean Owen] Fix markdown syntax issues that maruku flags, even though we use kramdown (but only those that do not affect kramdown's output)
99966a9 [Sean Owen] Update issue tracker URL in docs
23c9ac3 [Sean Owen] Add Scala Naive Bayes example, to use existing example data file (whose format needed a tweak)
8c81982 [Sean Owen] Fix small compile errors and typos across MLlib docs
