Examples don't work

I realise you don't officially support these, but - if only for use as sample templates of how to properly build and deploy DSE-based Spark jobs - it would be useful if the examples actually worked.

I've just tried the Scala/sbt/DSE example, and I get the following error messages:

My apologies, looks like the note in the README about "unresolved dependencies" and sbt also apply in this case (even though the error messages don't make that connection clear); maybe you could make that more obvious?
