Tim Armstrong resolved IMPALA-5661.
-----------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: Impala 2.10.0



IMPALA-5661: buffer pool limit

Adds the --buffer_pool_limit flag to control the buffer pool size.
It can be specified as either an absolute memory value or a percentage
of the process memory limit

Testing:
Started up a cluster with --buffer_pool_limit=10%, confirmed via
/metrics page that the buffer pool limit was reduced to ~800MB on
my system.

> Currently the buffer pool size is hard-coded to be 80% of the process memory limit. We expect that this is a reasonable default but it may be useful to add a safety value command line argument to allow control over this.
> E.g. 
> --buffer_pool_limit=80% would be the default, and it could be set to values like --buffer_pool_size=70% or --buffer_pool_size=40g
