------------------------------------------
cc [~GJL] [~liyu] We would like to add this to Flink 1.10. It's a simple change
of names that are introduced in Flink 1.10 and not introducing that renaming
now will make the renaming impossible in future versions if we don't want to
break things.
> Remove "-executor" suffix from executor names

> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: API / Core

> Fix For: 1.10.0

>
> The executor names always have "-executor" as a suffix, this is reduntant.
> Currently, the executor name is also used to retrieve a {{ClusterClient}},
> where it is unfortunate that the name has executor as a suffix. In the future
> we might provide something like a {{FlinkClient}} that offers a programmatic
> API for the functionality of {{bin/flink}}, here we would also use the same
> names.
> In reality, the "executor names" are not names of executors but deployment
> targets. That's why the current naming seems a bit unnatural.
> This is a simple search-and-replace job, no new functionality.
