Description

~~OOZIE-1890~~ moved all default config values from the code and oozie-site into oozie-default; it also added a WARN message on startup when a config is found in oozie-site that's not defined in oozie-default.

However, this can produce some false positives. In particular, we observed these:

2015-08-18 01:16:32,365 WARN org.apache.oozie.service.ConfigurationService: SERVER[<redacted>] Invalid configuration defined, [oozie.email.smtp.auth]
2015-08-18 01:16:32,365 WARN org.apache.oozie.service.ConfigurationService: SERVER[<redacted>] Invalid configuration defined, [oozie.email.smtp.host]

2015-08-18 01:16:32,366 WARN org.apache.oozie.service.ConfigurationService: SERVER[<redacted>] Invalid configuration defined, [oozie.service.GroupsService.hadoop.security.group.mapping]
2015-08-18 01:16:32,366 WARN org.apache.oozie.service.ConfigurationService: SERVER[<redacted>] Invalid configuration defined, [oozie.email.smtp.port]
2015-08-18 01:16:32,366 WARN org.apache.oozie.service.ConfigurationService: SERVER[<redacted>] Invalid configuration defined, [oozie.service.ProxyUserService.proxyuser.hue.groups]

While harmful, these messages may be concerning or confusing for users.

Some of these are simply missing from oozie-default (because they have no default value?), while others such as the ProxyUserService configs, will require special handling because the property name can vary.
