Upgraded APIs: Flink (0.8) and HBase (0.98.x) + profiles

I had to create an hadoop.core.version variable to manage the fact that cloudera has different versions for hadoop-core and hadoop-common..
Great! 
For the TableOutputFormat, it might be better to have something like the JDBCOutputFormat or the CSVOutputFormat, i.e., it receives a Tuple data type and assigns the individual fields of the tuples to HBase keys and/or columns. However, I'm not familiar with HBase's API.
