[PIG-1280] Add a pig-script-id to the JobConf of all jobs run in a pig-script

Release Note

A new Pig property ("pig.script.info.enabled") is added to the pig-default.properties file that allows Pig to add the user script, input dirs, and other script related settings to all MR jobs produced by the script (and so being persisted in the job xmls). The default value is true. To turn off this feature, set the value to false.

Description

It would be very useful for tools like gridmix if pig could add a 'pig-script-id' to all Map-Reduce jobs spawned by a single pig-script. Potentially we could use this to re-construct the DAG of jobs in gridmix and so on.
