That would depend on whether we want to support invalid paths or not
(please see my comment below).
If we are not supporting invalid paths, I will change this to `null != path
&& "" != path` explicitly - and have driver throw `IllegalArgumentException` as
part of `commitJob` or `abortJob` as earlier.
If we do want to support invalid paths, then exception is not irrelevant :
since it indicates an explicit invalid path passed in to output committer (and
output committer will suitably log in case parameter is invalid; it is not
`HadoopMapReduceCommitProtocol`'s responsibility to do so).
