[SPARK-13888][DOC] Remove Akka Receiver doc and refer to the DStream …

…Akka project

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

I have copied the docs of Streaming Akka to https://github.com/spark-packages/dstream-akka/blob/master/README.md

So we can remove them from Spark now.

## How was this patch tested?

Only document changes.

(If this patch involves UI changes, please attach a screenshot; otherwise, remove this)

-
-	You need to extend [`ActorReceiver`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.streaming.akka.ActorReceiver)
-	so as to store received data into Spark using `store(...)` methods. The supervisor strategy of
-	this actor can be configured to handle failures, etc.

-3. **Deploying:** As with any Spark applications, `spark-submit` is used to launch your application.
-You need to package `spark-streaming-akka_{{site.SCALA_BINARY_VERSION}}` and its dependencies into
-the application JAR. Make sure `spark-core_{{site.SCALA_BINARY_VERSION}}` and `spark-streaming_{{site.SCALA_BINARY_VERSION}}`
-are marked as `provided` dependencies as those are already present in a Spark installation. Then
-use `spark-submit` to launch your application (see [Deploying section](streaming-programming-guide.html#deploying-applications) in the main programming guide).
