Cleanup task tokens interface
-----------------------------

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-4069
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4069
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: mrv2
    Affects Versions: 0.23.2
            Reporter: Jason Lowe
            Priority: Minor


This tracks a couple of cleanup issues that were identified in MAPREDUCE-4043:

* It seems unnecessary to pass the job token and credentials separately when we 
always combine the job token into the credentials before building the container 
launch context.  The TaskImpl and TaskAttemptImpl constructors could simply 
take credentials with the job token already added rather than separate job 
token and credential parameters.
* It's unclear whether we still need the appTokens file that is placed into 
HDFS by the job submitter, localized by the NM, and finally read in by the AM. 
I believe the AM's credentials sent in the AM's container launch context 
already contains the same information.  If that's the case, we should remove 
the code related to the appTokens file.
