    [FLINK-4478] [flip-6] Add HeartbeatManager

    Adds a `HeartbeatManager` abstraction which can monitor heartbeat targets. 
Whenever no heartbeat signal has been received for a given heartbeat timeout 
interval, the heartbeat manager will issue a heartbeat timeout notification.
    
    The `HeartbeatManager` abstraction works completely independent of the RPC 
service. Furthermore, it reuses the same heartbeat logic for the sending and 
receiving side of the heartbeat.

> With the Flip-6 refactoring, we'll have the need for a dedicated heartbeat 
> component. The heartbeat component is used to check the liveliness of the 
> distributed components among each other. Furthermore, heartbeats are used to 
> regularly transmit status updates to another component. For example, the 
> TaskManager informs the ResourceManager with each heartbeat about the current 
> slot allocation.
> The heartbeat is initiated from one component. This component sends a 
> heartbeat request to another component which answers with an heartbeat 
> response. Thus, one can differentiate between a sending and a receiving side. 
> Apart from the triggering of the heartbeat request, the logic of treating 
> heartbeats, marking components dead and payload delivery are the same and 
> should be reusable by different distributed components (JM, TM, RM).
> Different models for the heartbeat reporting are conceivable. First of all, 
> the heartbeat request could be sent as an ask operation where the heartbeat 
> response is returned as a future on the sending side. Alternatively, the 
> sending side could request a heartbeat response by sending a tell message. 
> The heartbeat response is then delivered by an RPC back to the heartbeat 
> sender. The latter model has the advantage that a heartbeat response is not 
> tightly coupled to a heartbeat request. Such a tight coupling could cause 
> that heartbeat response are ignored after the future has timed out even 
> though they might still contain valuable information (receiver is still 
> alive).
> Furthermore, different strategies for the heartbeat triggering and marking 
> heartbeat targets as dead are conceivable. For example, we could periodically 
> (with a fixed period) trigger a heartbeat request and mark all targets as 
> dead if we didn't receive a heartbeat response in a given time period. 
> Furthermore, we could adapt the heartbeat interval and heartbeat timeouts 
> with respect to the latency of previous heartbeat responses. This would 
> reflect the current load and network conditions better.
> For the first version, I would propose to use a fixed period heartbeat with a 
> maximum heartbeat timeout before a target is marked dead. Furthermore, I 
> would propose to use tell messages (fire and forget) to request and report 
> heartbeats because they are the more flexible model imho.
