Description

In order to get release 1.6 of parquet-mr out, we have to do some updates.

For Apache policy:
1. Update the header in all Parquet source files (see PARQUET-72 for examples)
2. Add DISCLAIMER and KEYS files (copy from parquet-format)
3. Add the Apache Rat maven plugin to check source file license headers and make sure it passes
4. For the overall project, go through any external source that is bundled and update the root LICENSE and NOTICE files
5. For each module that produces a binary artifact, go through the content pulled in by the maven-shade-plugin or the maven-assembly-plugin and update a LICENSE and NOTICE file for that content (see PARQUET-109 for an example).

We also need to update the build (see PR #11):
1. Inherit from the ASF pom to pull in Apache release settings (will be done for org.apache groupId)
2. Update metadata, like SCM, mailing lists, and JIRA links
3. Go through modules and remove any LICENSE and NOTICE files that are included by shading or assembly (relevant content should be included in parquet-mr LICENSE and NOTICE)
