I considered that approach as well, but found that this one sat more
elegantly with the metrics collecting code.
DiskObjectWriter, which is used both when spilling and when writing out
final shuffle data, accepts a WriteMetrics (nee ShuffleWriteMetrics) object,
and increments it as it writes. Having a more complex ShuffleWriteMetrics
object would require pushing down knowledge about the purpose of the write into
DiskObjectWriter so it could increment the appropriate fields. Or we could
make a distinction between the metric-collecting objects that DiskObjectWriters
takes and the ShuffleWriteMetrics/ShuffleReadMetrics that go into the
TaskMetrics, but this seems to me like a layer of complexity that's worth
avoiding if we can.
