Review comment:
To be honest, this is a fairly advanced setting and the operator would need
to know the nitty-gritty details of segment assignment and loading.
The zookeeper node created for processing a segment load/drop should be
deleted within `druid.coordinator.load.timeout`. If the node doesn't get
deleted, then it means the historical failed to process the request. When such
a timeout happens, queue peon needs to mark the change request as failed and
effectively tell the coordinator to assign this change request to another
historical. With several concurrent change requests in flight, it is possible
that such reassignment may not run fast enough. Such a scenario though is very
unlikely which is why the default number of threads is 1.
