Description

With BIGTOP_BUILD_STAMP env set, the built package can be managed by having different step number is rpm/deb artifacts. For example:

• BIGTOP_BUILD_STAMP=8 ./gradlew realclean bigtop-utils-pkg
• bigtop-utils-1.3.1-8.el7.noarch.rpm
  Ref: https://github.com/apache/bigtop/blob/master/BUILDING.txt#L79

However, BIGTOP_BUILD_STAMP is a global and manual setting. For people who folk bigtop and would like to build up there own hadoop stack, different components may have different step numbers. The release number in bigtop.bom can serve this purpose. However it's not working now.
