Description

Compiled on dates were present on the JobTracker UI. Bring compiled on dates to resource manager and node
manager UI.

NM and RM retrieves build version for hadoop and yarn version via the getBuildVersion util api. This function used to
contain the compiled on date, but since has been removed since that function is used to determine hadoop compatible
versions, but was too restrictive with build date being present. Instead, a getDate call should be used to retrieve the
compiled on date.
