    NIFI-4741: Avoid DelegationToken expiration at ReportLineageToAtlas

    The reporting task used to hold a single AtlasClientV2 instance
    throughout its runtime starting from being started until being stopped.
    If it is configured to use Kerberos authentication for Atlas REST API, after
    a published DelegationToken expires (10 hours by default), the reporting
    task will not be able to recover from 401 Unauthorized state.
    
    In order to avoid stucking in such situation, this commit changes the
    way ReportLineageToAtlas uses AtlasClientV2 instance to create an
    instance per onTrigger execution. It also addresses Kerberos ticket
    expiration.
    
    This approach incurs some overheads by initiating the client each time,
    however, it should be insignificant from an overall processing time
    perspective including analyzing NiFi flow and Provenance records.
