Review Comment:
   This `stopped` guard is a check-then-act without synchronization, so it 
doesn't fully close the race it describes:
   
   1. If `onStopRequest` -> `stop(KILLED)` runs on the launcher thread right 
after `start()` passes this check, `stop()` sees `localEndpoint == null` and 
`userCredentialManager == None` (which isn't `@volatile`) and skips both. Then 
`start()` creates the endpoint and starts the `UserCredentialManager`, leaving 
the renewal thread (network I/O) running on a killed app.
   2. If the kill arrives before `start()`, `start()` returns here with 
`localEndpoint` still `null`. `SparkContext` construction continues, and the 
first `reviveOffers()` hits an NPE on `localEndpoint.send(...)`.
   
   Could we serialize `start()`/`stop()` (e.g., `synchronized`), or re-check 
`stopped` after setup and tear down what was just created?
