YARN Queue Manager UI behavior in mixed resource allocation mode

The mixed resource allocation mode in YARN is only supported through safety valves. If you open the Queue Manager UI or try to access Queue Manager APIs when mixed calculation mode is turned on, Queue Manager blocks the UI or APIs and informs you that mixed calculation mode is turned on, Queue Manager is inaccessible until this feature is fully compatible.

If the flag `yarn.scheduler.capacity.legacy-queue-mode.enabled` is not set or the property is missing, mixed resource allocation mode is not enabled in YARN. The detection of mixed allocation mode is determined by this flag in the capacity scheduler safety valve XML.
