   Dear Gobblin maintainers,
   
   Please accept this PR. I understand that it will not be reviewed until I 
have checked off all the steps below!
   
   
   ### JIRA
   - [x] My PR addresses the following [Gobblin 
JIRA](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GOBBLIN/) issues and references 
them in the PR title. For example, "[GOBBLIN-XXX] My Gobblin PR"
       - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GOBBLIN-1099
   
   
   ### Description
   - [x] Here are some details about my PR, including screenshots (if 
applicable):
   A Yarn application may leave behind orphaned containers, which can happen 
due to lost node managers. The orphaned containers however can continue to run 
(potentially forever) as participants in the Helix cluster. This can cause the 
following problems for a Gobblin-on-Yarn application:
   
   Double publish of data and commit of state
   Task failures and partition starvation during application restarts, as Helix 
may assign tasks to the orphaned containers which have a stale state and 
configuration
   Container failures on application restarts due to Helix instance name 
collisions with orphaned containers
   
   This PR incorporates the following changes to handle orphaned containers:
   1. Disables live instances during Yarn application start up and shutdown in 
GobblinYarnAppLauncher. This ensures that any orphaned Helix instances are 
disabled from joining the cluster on restart and any tasks running on these 
instances are cancelled.
   2. The GobblinApplicationMaster (inside YarnService) ensures that Helix 
instance name assigned to a newly allocated container is not a currently live 
instance to avoid instance name collisions. We also handle NM failures/restarts 
that result in Yarn RM "aborting" the container (i.e. container is deemed dead 
from Yarn's point of view, even though the container may physically be alive). 
In this case, we disable the instance to ensure it is fenced off from the Helix 
cluster.
   3. Gobblin workers (i.e. GobblinYarnTaskRunner) retry in case of failure in 
joining a Helix cluster. The retry logic disconnects from the Helix cluster and 
drops the instance before reattempting to join the cluster. 
   
   ### Tests
   - [x] My PR adds the following unit tests __OR__ does not need testing for 
this extremely good reason:
   Added unit test in GobblinTaskRunnerTest
   
   ### Commits
   - [x] My commits all reference JIRA issues in their subject lines, and I 
have squashed multiple commits if they address the same issue. In addition, my 
commits follow the guidelines from "[How to write a good git commit 
message](http://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/)":
       1. Subject is separated from body by a blank line
       2. Subject is limited to 50 characters
       3. Subject does not end with a period
       4. Subject uses the imperative mood ("add", not "adding")
       5. Body wraps at 72 characters
       6. Body explains "what" and "why", not "how"
