[FLINK-7265] [FLINK-7266] Introduce FileSystemKind and ConsistencyLevel for
FileSystem
## What is the purpose of the change
This change lets File Systems exposes more information about their kind and
consistency. For example, whether they support real directory structures,
efficient recursive deletes, or rename consistency.
This information is used to hotfix the [FLINK-7266] bug where S3 cleanup
becomes prohibitively expensive due to excessive and unnecessary bucket
contents listing.
## Brief change log
- Adds `ConsistencyLevel` and `FileSystemKind` enums do describe file
systems
- All `FileSystems` declare their kind and consistency
- `HadoopFileSystemWrapper` infers the kind and consistency from the
scheme
- `FileStateHandle` only attempts to delete parent directory if the
target file system is a proper filesystem.
## Verifying this change
This change is verified by the addition of some unit tests:
- Checking that the consistency levels and properties relate as expected
- Check inference of `LocalFileSystem` consistency (Linux / Windows)
- Check inference of HDFS wrapper file systems consistency
## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts:
- Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): **no**
- The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with
`@Public(Evolving)`: **no**
- The serializers: **no**
- The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): **no**
- Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its
components), Checkpointing, Yarn/Mesos, ZooKeeper: **no**
The worst thing that could happen here is that empty checkpoint parent
directories are not cleaned up on some file systems identifying themselves as
`s3` or so.
## Documentation
- Does this pull request introduce a new feature? **no**
- If yes, how is the feature documented? **not applicable**

[FLINK-7265] [core] Introduce FileSystemKind and ConsistencyLevel for
FileSystem
These describe the characteristics of the file system, such as consistency
and support
for directories and efficient directory operations.

[FLINK-7266] [core] Prevent attempt for parent directory deletion for
object stores
----
> FileSystems should describe their kind and consistency level

> Key: FLINK-7265
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7265
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Assignee: Stephan Ewen
> Fix For: 1.4.0, 1.3.2
>
>
> Currently, all {{FileSystem}} types look the same to Flink.
> However, certain operations should only be executed on certain kinds of file
> systems.
> For example, it makes no sense to attempt to delete an empty parent directory
> on S3, because there are no such thinks as directories, only hierarchical
> naming in the keys (file names).
