java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: Found interface org.objectweb.asm.MethodVisitor, but class was expected

Steps to reproduce:

1. Pull master branch (0.8.0-SNAPSHOT)
2. changed <scala.binary.version> to 2.12 and <scala.version> to ${scala-2.12.version} in pom.xml
3. package the jars through maven package
4. extract the assembly/target/apache-livy-0.8.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT-bin.zip 
5. Start livy server
6. Create an interactive session
7. Fails with java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError. Find attached stack trace.

Observations:

I see that Hadoop 2.7 uses asm-3.2.jar. And livy 0.8.0-SNAPSHOT uses asm-5.0.4.jar
