Strictly speaking this should be two separate JIRAs, but I don't think anyone
is that fussy about it. I've seen plenty of patches that touch more than one
project. I've submitted several myself that touched common and HDFS.

OK, although it'd be ideal to have two JIRAs (YARN to enable support for
wildcards in container launch context and MAPREDUCE to take advantage of it),
it might be good to move it to MAPREDUCE at least. The majority of the changes
are really in MAPREDUCE. What do you think?

> When using the -libjars option to add classes to the classpath, every library
> so added is explicitly listed in the {{ContainerLaunchContext}}'s local
> resources even though they're all uploaded to the same directory in HDFS.
> When using tools like Crunch without an uber JAR or when trying to take
> advantage of the shared cache, the number of libraries can be quite large.
> We've seen many cases where we had to turn down the max number of
> applications to prevent ZK from running out of heap because of the size of
> the state store entries.
> Rather than listing all files independently, this JIRA proposes to have the
> NM allow wildcards in the resource localization paths. Specifically, we
> propose to allow a path to have a final component (name) set to "*", which is
> interpreted by the NM as "download the full directory and link to every file
> in it from the job's working directory." This behavior is the same as the
> current behavior when using -libjars, but avoids explicitly listing every
> file.
> This JIRA does not attempt to provide more general purpose wildcards, such as
> "\*.jar" or "file\*", as having multiple entries for a single directory
> presents numerous logistical issues.
> This JIRA also does not attempt to integrate with the shared cache. That
> work will be left to a future JIRA. Specifically, this JIRA only applies
> when a full directory is uploaded. Currently the shared cache does not
> handle directory uploads.
> This JIRA proposes to allow for wildcards both in the internal processing of
> the -libjars switch and in paths added through the {{Job}} and
> {{DistributedCache}} classes.
> The proposed approach is to treat a path, "dir/\*", as "dir" for purposes of
> all file verification and localization. In the final step, the NM will query
> the localized directory to get a list of the files in "dir" such that each
> can be linked from the job's working directory. Since $PWD/\* is always
> included on the classpath, all JAR files in "dir" will be in the classpath.
