Review comment:
To keep it simple, I would suggest to
1. remove the explicit `mapred.child.java.opts`
2. and add a new environment variable `NUTCH_HADOOP_OPTS` which is used to
add further options to the commonOptions
In local mode it's still sufficient to use the environment variable
NUTCH_OPTS to set the Java heap size. In distributed mode, this would allow
fine-grained memory settings, e.g.
```
export NUTCH_HADOOP_OPTS="-Dmapreduce.map.memory.mb=8192
-Dmapreduce.map.java.opts=-Xmx7680m"
```
These are required, as the Java heap must be lower than the total memory
allocated for a map/reduce task.
