------------------------------------

Once we do decide the patch is go to go, I will rebase all of the changes into 
a single commit.

> Currently the AbstractHadoopProcessor only supports talking to non-kerberos 
> Hadoop clusters. Even though the user might be supplying a Hadoop 
> configuration which indicates the authentication implementation is Kerberos, 
> NiFi will still attempt to connect via SIMPLE authentication. This results in 
> a processor exception. 
> *Goals:*
> * Minimal configuration for Kerberos support
> * Talk to both secure and non-secure clusters within the same NiFi instance
> * Support for more than one principal across processors (e.g. process A uses 
> User1, processor B uses User2)
> *Non-Goals:*
> * Use of more than one krb5.conf at a time
> *Basic Usage Proposal:*
> Edit _conf/nifi.properties_ and modify the following values
> {code:title=nifi.properties|borderStyle=solid}
> ..
> # kerberos #
> nifi.kerberos.krb5.file=/path/to/krb5.conf
> {code}
