SPARK_YARN_USER_ENV is optional. We could make sure some other env
variable is always set when we launch a container in yarn though.
I was looking for something else we could use that would be reliable. For
instance, you could use the LOCAL_DIRS or YARN_LOCAL_DIRS as an indicator since
YARN always set those. But LOCAL_DIRS is generic enough I guess a user could
have it set for something else. There are other variables that YARN sets for
you. I think what might be a good idea is to check to see if either
CONTAINER_ID or NM_HOST are set. The reason to check for both is hadoop 2.x
sets CONTAINER_ID which I prefer to use but hadoop 0.23 doesn't and NM_HOST is
set on both.
