opposed to bin directory

Key: FLUME-939
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-939
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Shell
Affects Versions: v1.0.0
Reporter: Karthik K
When frequently trying out different installations / upgrades of flume, more
than not, the flume installation directory (including ./bin) is nuked and
replaced with an updated version for testing, but the flume settings are
usually stored under FLUME_CONF_DIR , independently to preserve the settings.
In the current code, the flume-env.sh(.template) is present in BINDIR to
override.
We want to provide a mechanism, to source from FLUME_CONFIG_DIR/flume-env.sh
though, (if present) while being backward compatible still.
