I'm somewhat dubious about whether this is needed. It takes a single
command to kill a job with yarn application -kill. Also, the advantage of the
latter is that it should return a non-zero exit code if something goes wrong,
but there's no automated way to know that a kill went through when the client
is killed. Also, for comparison, there's no similar option for killing a
MapReduce job.
