The way we should solve this is to change the URI in the metadata to point to a 
remote store for completed realtime segments
   
   Are you suggesting in case of non-local storage, Pinot servers by-pass Pinot 
controllers to download the segment from remote directly. I think that is a 
good idea (and we in fact talked out this during last meeting) but it is out of 
scope of this PR in my opinion because:
   (1) PinotSegmentUploadRestletResource right now does not work with Pinot FS 
-- so it is a bug we should fix unless we want to delete this resource.
   (2) Currently in LLC, in the common path the commit servers anyway need to 
pass segments to Pinot controller during commit. The download segment path is 
in fact a less common code path. So I do not see the point of doing the less 
common path optimization before we solve the whole problem of by-passing Pinot 
controller for segment data transfer.
