URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/6539
 
 
   ## What is the purpose of the change
   
   Using the ExecutorThreadFactory hardens the system because it uses the FatalExitExceptionHandler
   as UncaughtExceptionHandler which terminates the JVM in case of an exception.
   
   ## Verifying this change
   
   This change is a trivial rework / code cleanup without any test coverage.

     - The serializers: (no)
     - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): (no)
     - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Yarn/Mesos, ZooKeeper: (no)

> Instead of using the {{DefaultThreadFactory}} in the {{RestServerEndpoint}}/{{RestClient}} we should use the {{ExecutorThreadFactory}} because it uses the {{FatalExitExceptionHandler}} per default as the uncaught exception handler. This should guard against uncaught exceptions by simply terminating the JVM.
