Description
TaskMetrics has a bunch of var's, some are fully public, some are private[spark]. This is bad coding style that makes it easy to accidentally overwrite previously set metrics. This has happened a few times in the past and caused bugs that were difficult to debug.
Instead, we should have get-or-create semantics, which are more readily understandable. This makes sense in the case of TaskMetrics because these are just aggregated metrics that we want to collect throughout the task, so it doesn't matter who's incrementing them.
