Description

there are applications where custom inputformat used in MR action, and log message from the inputformat is written on launcher task log. for debugging purpose, users need to check the launcher task log. but currently in MR action, oozie automatically swaps external ID, and do not expose the launcher ID in web-console. (now only way is to to grep oozie.log). this jira is to show launcher job URL on web console when using Map Reduce action
