    [FLINK-4316] [core] [hadoop compatibility] Make flink-core independent of 
Hadoop

    This pull request moves all 'Writable' related code to the 
'flink-hadoop-compatibility' project
    and uses reflection in 'flink-core' to instantiate WritableTypeInfo when 
needed.
    
    The test are also moved and adjusted to reflect this.
    
    One remaining issue is how to instantiate the WritableTypeInfo from within 
the Scala Macros. I'd need @aljoscha or @tillrohrmann to look at this.

>
> We want to gradually reduce the hard and heavy mandatory dependencies in 
> Hadoop. Hadoop will still be part of (most) flink downloads, but the API 
> projects should not have a hard dependency on Hadoop.
> I suggest to start with {{flink-core}}, because it only depends on Hadoop for 
> the {{Writable}} type, to support seamless operation of Hadoop types.
> I propose to move all {{WritableTypeInfo}}-related classes to the 
> {{flink-hadoop-compatibility}} project and access them via reflection in the 
> {{TypeExtractor}}.
> That way, {{Writable}} types will be out of the box supported if users have 
> the {{flink-hadoop-compatibility}} project in the classpath.
