Hadoop 2.7.x libraries fail when running on JDK9 due to the version string changing to a single
character. On Hadoop 2.8, this is no longer a problem, and it is unclear on whether the fix will be
backported to the 2.7 branch. This commit upgrades our dependency of Hadoop for the HDFS
Repository to 2.8.1.
This PR introduces a subproject in test/fixtures that contains a Vagrantfile used for standing up a
KRB5 KDC (Kerberos). The PR also includes helper scripts for provisioning principals, a few
changes to the HDFS Fixture to allow it to interface with the KDC, as well as a new suite of
integration tests for the HDFS Repository plugin.
The HDFS Repository plugin senses if the local environment can support the HDFS Fixture
(Windows is generally a restricted environment). If it can use the regular fixture, it then tests if
Vagrant is installed with a compatible version to determine if the secure test fixtures should be
enabled. If the secure tests are enabled, then we create a Kerberos KDC fixture, tasks for adding
the required principals, and an HDFS fixture configured for security. A new integration test task is
also configured to use the KDC and secure HDFS fixture and to run a testing suite that uses
authentication. At the end of the secure integration test the fixtures are torn down.
