BIGTOP-3564. Fix build failure of Flink on Cent OS 7 ppc64le.

[iwasakims]

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-3564

Build fails due to error related to node.js.

Running 'npm ci --cache-max=0 --no-save' in /bigtop/build/flink/rpm/BUILD/flink-1.11.3/flink-runtime-web/web-dashboard
/bigtop/build/flink/rpm/BUILD/flink-1.11.3/flink-runtime-web/web-dashboard/node/node: /lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by /bigtop/build/flink/rpm/BUILD/flink-1.11.3/flink-runtime-web/web-dashboard/node/node)

eirslett/frontend-maven-plugin#852 reported that using v.12 node.js fixed similar issue.

I did not test this on ppc64le.

[iwasakims]

There was a issue related to graceful-fs on upgrading node.js from v.10 to v.12 for Hadoop in apache/hadoop#3128. Flink might need similar fix.

Even the current trunk of Flink uses node.js 10.9.0 (same as of Flink 1.11.3).

[iwasakims]

Just dropping Web UI support on ppc64le could be an option.

if [ $HOSTTYPE = "powerpc64le" ] ; then
  FLINK_BUILD_OPTS="-Pskip-webui-build ${FLINK_BUILD_OPTS}"
fi

@iwasakims I tried the current PR (0013b19) on ppc64le and it succeeded as far as building a package.

But I'm not sure about the graceful-fs matter. Is that OK if the build succeeded, or do we have to set up Flink's web UI so as to make sure if it works with the old version of graceful-fs?

[iwasakims]

Thanks, @sekikn. I think we should commit this and move the release forward. We can wait feedback and address additional issues in follow-up JIRA. There might be no problem since graceful-fs 3 is not used at least.

[sekikn]

OK, I'm going to merge this with my +1. Thanks @iwasakims!
