Description

Currently, some ducktape services like KafkaService store their files directly in /mnt. This means that cleanup involves running rm -rf /mnt/*. It would be better if services stored their files in subdirectories of mount. For example, KafkaService could store its files in /mnt/kafka. This would make cleanup simpler and avoid the need to remove all of /mnt. It would also make running multiple services on the same node possible.
