------------------------------------------------------------------

This patch makes the following changes to map/reduce:
1. JobTracker removes all the files/subdirectories under the map/reduce system instead of removing the mapreduce system directory. If the system directory does not exist, it creates it with the permission \-wx\-wx\-wx. This requires that the runner of the job tracker is the same as the namenode.
2. JobClient creates job direoctories using the permission \-wx\-wx\-wx and creates job files using the permission rw\-r\-\-r\-\-. It also stores its user id in the job configuration.

    This patch makes the following changes to map/reduce:
1. JobTracker removes all the files/subdirectories under the map/reduce system instead of removing the mapreduce system directory. If the system directory does not exist, it creates it with the right permission -wx-wx-wx. This requires that the runner of the job tracker is the same as the namenode.
2. JobClient creates job direoctories using the permission -wx-wx-wx and creates job files using the permission rw-r--r--. It also stores its user id in the job configuration.

> HADOOP-1298 and HADOOP-1701 add permissions and pluggable security for DFS files and DFS accesses. Same users permission should work for Map/Reduce jobs as well. 
> User persmission should propegate from client to map/reduce tasks and all the file operations should be subject to user permissions. This is transparent to the user (i.e. no changes to user code should be required).
