[SPARK-4546] Improve HistoryServer first time user experience
The documentation points the user to run the following ``` sbin/start-history-server.sh ``` The first thing this does is throw an exception that complains a log directory is not specified. The exception message itself does not say anything about what to set. Instead we should have a default and a landing page with a better message. The new default log directory is `file:/tmp/spark-events`. This is what it looks like as of this PR: ![after](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12682985/after.png) Author: Andrew Or <andrew@databricks.com> Closes #3411 from andrewor14/minor-history-improvements and squashes the following commits: f33d6b3 [Andrew Or] Point user to set config if default log dir does not exist fc4c17a [Andrew Or] Improve HistoryServer UX (cherry picked from commit 9afcbe494a3535a9bf7958429b72e989972f82d9) Signed-off-by: Andrew Or <andrew@databricks.com>
