 Review comment:
    I thought about it. Not all RecordReader need that. Ideally, we want to 
pass a PinotFS interface wrapper but want to avoid making too many changes in 
this PR. My first goal is to decouple the modules without adding too much 
functionality/changing existing classes.  We will have a better idea when we 
move the interfaces to spi module.
