I have objections of reusing apache forrest. We had tons of troubles with reusing forrest in the past. That was the reason I made it a throw away environment. I am fine with reusing downloads but not with installations.

> BIGTOP-2989 and BIGTOP-2992 introduced support for LOCAL_DOWNLOADS_DIR environment variable as a location to check before downloading from Internet. This improvement aims to formalize this variable for the following:
> * For Hadoop, always download the file to this directory so that it can be reused in the build via a file:// URL
> * For Pig, use this directory even if a download is necessary.
> * Add details on this variable to confluence.
