Can we leave it that, if blank, it will use the system-generated directory
as you have in 1.9? This means we'll still need your getTmpDir method. To do
the check for blank.
Also, as it turns out, we already have a temp dir setting used elsewhere.
Look in drill-override-example.conf under drill.sys.store.provider.local.path.
It uses "/tmp/drill". Then it adds subdirs for storage plugins and what-not.
Can we use "/tmp/drill/udf" as the base temp storage location for udfs to
be consistent? Then we'd add the cluster-id, etc. as in your "cluster-temp-dir"
below.
And, yes, we have lots of places where we specify the temp file system
(UDFs, the one cited above, the (unused) cache.hazel, the temp dirs for
spilling, ...). We do need to create a project (later) to rationalize all of
this...
