Description

1. Make tier a required field in TaskConfig Thrift struct.
2. Backfill tier based on production flag.
3. The command line tool should query scheduler and revise the choice of tier and production in job configuration, if necessary.
   • If tier is set, set/reset production to ensure consistency.
   • Otherwise, set tier based on the value of production.
4. The command line tool should warn user if the production flag is used.

Additionally, it must be ensured that not providing tier or specifying production flag prevents Job from being accepted by the scheduler.
