So this really just provides a common place to install libraries for Hive, Sqoop and Oozie. To be able to detect these drivers in their default install locations consistently again, we'll need to make Tomcat deployments more dynamic (see BIGTOP-939). So I think this is just a good first step.

> For components that require the installation of additional artifacts that Bigtop cannot distribute (due to license incompatability or other issues), Bigtop should provide both a standardized location to which the artifacts can be installed, and the ability to auto-detect the locations to which they may already be installed.
> Specifically, Sqoop and Hive (and possibly other components) require the installation of the MySQL-Java connector when using MySQL for imports, exports, or metadata storage. This needs to be done by copying the JAR to a directory that is already in the classpath for those components (such as /usr/lib/sqoop/lib and /usr/lib/hive/lib). Some repositories distribute packages that install the jar to /usr/share/java.
