Description

Gobblin depends on an ancient version of Guava, 15.0.0.
This version of Guava was released in 2013 and is running into compatibility issues with many modern dependencies.

We should gradually work on upgrading Guava to a recent version, but for now will try version 20.0.0 (released Oct 2016 which is still old) but the main concern for large version bumps is to avoid compatibility issues with other old Gobblin dependencies (Hive/Hadoop)
