[FLINK-2326] Write yarn properties file to temp directory Flink's YARN client is writing a `.yarn-properties` file to the `conf/` directory containing the JobManager's host and port. It seems that at least two users were installing Flink into a read only location, thus Flink was unable to write the properties file to `conf/`. With this change, the file is written into the `/tmp/` directory with the current user's name. This will allow to use a shared Flink installation with different users at the same time. I also introduced a configuration value to change the location of the properties file.
