> While working on SOLR-5823, i tried to write a test using 
> ZkController.forceOverSeer() to force the overseer to change from one node to 
> another (to prove my code could properly detect the new overseer)
> The test failed spectacuarly, because after calling forceOverSeer() the end 
> result was that Overseer obejcts on both ZkControllers wound up being active.
> I'm not well versed on the leader/overseer election stuff -- but from what i 
> can tell poking arround in the code of forceOverSeer(), compared to the code 
> involved in OversearchElectionContext, it seems like forceOverSeer() doesn't 
> relaly do anything to ensure that the "old" overseer ever "stops".  miller's 
> comments in SOLR-5823 seem to re-affirm that.
> We should make forceOverSeer() work safely, or we should eliminate it.
