Description

With the recent `--show-logs` flag, we switch the deploy mode to `client` so that EMR steps can capture the driver `stdout`.

Unfortunately, `--client` mode doesn't work with additional archives provided via the `--archives` flag or `--conf spark.archives` parameter. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-36088 for more a related issue.

In order to support this for cluster mode, we'd need to parse the step `stderr` logs to retrieve the Yarn application ID, then fetch the Yarn application logs from S3.

Research direction

Trace the existing --show-logs handling and the cluster-mode path, then review how --archives and --conf spark.archives are passed to EMR. The implementation needs to parse step stderr for the YARN application ID and fetch the corresponding application logs from S3; done means --show-logs works in cluster mode with additional archives.
