@tillrohrmann, There is not a generic way for both Yarn and Mesos, as their
resource allocation interface are different. I think the YARN/MESOS resource
manager should handle it in their own way. For example, in YarnResourceManager,
it can add all extended resources to the yarn Resource.class by call
setResourceValue(name, value). And then only if YARN support a new resource
type, user can define it without code changing in flink.
> Extend the resource type user can define in ResourceSpec

> Now, flink only support user define how much CPU and MEM used in an operator,
> but now the resource in a cluster is various. For example, an application for
> image processing may need GPU, some others may need FPGA.
> Only CPU and MEM is not enough, and the resource type is becoming more and
> more, so we need to make the ResourSpec extendible.
