             Summary: MIMA checks should apply to @Experimental and @DeveloperAPI APIs
                 Key: SPARK-13920
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-13920
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Project Infra
            Reporter: Josh Rosen


Our MIMA binary compatibility checks currently ignore APIs which are marked as {{@Experimental}} or {{@DeveloperApi}}, but I don't think this makes sense. Even if those annotations _reserve_ the right to break binary compatibility, we should still avoid compatibility breaks whenever possible and should be informed explicitly when compatibility breaks.

As a result, we should update GenerateMIMAIgnore to stop ignoring classes and methods which have those annotations. To remove the ignores, remove the checks from https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/643649dcbfabc5d6952c2ecfb98286324c887665/tools/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/tools/GenerateMIMAIgnore.scala#L43

After removing the ignores, update {{project/MimaExcludes.scala}} to add exclusions for binary compatibility breaks introduced in 2.0.
