Description

NM should kill and cleanup the leaked containers. as discussed in YARN-2816, we should implement a function which is to kill and cleanup the leaked containers: look for the pid file, try to kill it if found, and return a recovered container status of killed/lost or something similar.
So this function can be called when a leaked container is found.
