    The reason to make this change is that if multiple 
```FSIdempotentStorageManager```s  are used in an application then their state 
(on disk) collide.  The jira APEXMALHAR-2068 is opened to address that. 
    
    The problem in having FSIdempotentStorageManager as default is that the 
users get bewildered because of in-correct behavior manifested by the bug 
mentioned above.
    
    If the user sets FSIdempotentStorageManage explicitly then they can ensure 
to make the relative path unique as well.
    
    Not setting any default entails additional step of setting an Idempotent 
storage manager even when the user doesn't care about idempotency.

> If an application has multiple logical operators that use Window Data 
> Manager, then by default they share the same state. This is confusing and 
> cause issues.
> We need to make this path unique by default for each logical instance.
