----------------------------------------------

Thanks for the review [~ajayyadava] . Let me explain my thoughts over this 
approach

1) Falcon should give users a way to securely state store credentials, it 
shouldn't mandate on that. In QA environment or dev testing environment, they 
don't care of security. That's why i have provided a way to securely store 
credentials, if they don't want they can simply store password in 
statestore.properties.

2) I have given options to user to specify statestore credentials either in 
statestore.properties or secure file with 400 permissions. Let's user decide 
what they want to do.
