Implement a new message manager which writes messages to HDFS rather than 
sending them over RPC.

                 Key: HAMA-554
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAMA-554
             Project: Hama
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Apurv Verma


The current message managers send all messages over RPC. In this issue we would 
like to create a DFSMessageManager which writes all messages to HDFS and store 
its PATH. Later in the sync() phase these PATHs may be send to other peers 
which can then read the messages from the HDFS.
Pros:
This can handle the case when the number of messages sent in a single superstep 
are too many to be all contained in memory. HAMA-521 already provides the 
implementation of Disk based queue. We can abstract this DiskQueue in the util 
section and use it here.

Cons:
Reading data from HDFS might be slow.
