Description

( As discussed with aw )
In AVRO-1537 a docker based solution was created to setup all the tools for doing a full build. This enables much easier reproduction of any issues and getting up and running for new developers.

This issue is to 'copy/port' that setup into the hadoop project in preparation for the bug squash.
