Sparksoniq 0.9.3 "Cedar"

Third alpha release for Sparksoniq, a JSONiq engine to query large-scale JSON datasets stored on HDFS. Spark under the hood.

New: various bugfixes:

• Ctrl+D now exits nicely from the shell
• count() calls are pushed down to Spark if the nested expression uses underlying RDDs.
• various exceptions are now caught and displayed with a nice error messages.
• Strings can be concatenated with atomic types (they get serialized to a string)
• Lookup can be done on a sequence of objects

The jar files no longer contain the Spark libraries, as they are provided by the local environment or the cluster.

The jar file with ANTLR 4.7 is to be used with Spark 2.3+. Older versions (2.0+) use ANTLR 4.5.3.
