Also, change `localityAwarePendingTasks` to `localityAwareTasks` because the tasks need not be pending. --- Update the cluster manager on our scheduling needs. Three bits of information are included to help it make decisions. @param numExecutors The total number of executors we'd like to have. The cluster manager shouldn't kill any running executor to reach this number, but, if all existing executors were to die, this is the number of executors we'd want to be allocated. @param localityAwareTasks The number of tasks in all active stages that have a locality preferences. This includes running, pending, and completed tasks. @param hostToLocalTaskCount A map of hosts to the number of tasks from all active stages that would like to like to run on that host. This includes running, pending, and completed tasks.
