Description

flink_uber_jar_job_server assumes there is a Flink cluster with an accessible REST endpoint. We should make this assumption clear in our error messages (right now I believe we'd just return some sort of generic "request failed" message).

Imported from Jira [BEAM-12813](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-12813). Original Jira may contain additional context.

Research direction

Start by locating flink_uber_jar_job_server and the REST request error-handling entry point. Review the original Jira issue for any additional context about failed Flink cluster access. Done means failures clearly explain that a Flink cluster or accessible REST endpoint is required instead of returning a generic request-failed message.
