[FLINK-1330] [build] Build creates a link in the root directory to the
build target directory
The sym link allows you to find the target directory of the build fast. It
looks like this
```
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user group 84 Jan 24 12:13 build-target ->
/data/repositories/flink/flink-dist/target/flink-0.9-SNAPSHOT-bin/flink-0.9-SNAPSHOT/
drwxrwxr-x 9 user group 4096 Jan 24 11:25 docs/
drwxrwxr-x 12 user group 4096 Jan 24 11:55 flink-addons/

drwxrwxr-x 5 user group 4096 Jan 24 11:54 flink-compiler/

----
> Restructure directory layout
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-1330
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1330
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build System, Documentation
> Reporter: Max Michels
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: usability
>
> When building Flink, the build results can currently be found under
> "flink-root/flink-dist/target/flink-$FLINKVERSION-incubating-SNAPSHOT-bin/flink-$YARNVERSION-$FLINKVERSION-incubating-SNAPSHOT/".
> I think we could improve the directory layout with the following:
> - provide the bin folder in the root by default
> - let the start up and submissions scripts in bin assemble the class path
> - in case the project hasn't been build yet, inform the user
> The changes would make it easier to work with Flink from source.
