Zhuo Liu updated STORM-1696:
----------------------------
    Description: 
When there is a zk exception happens during worker-backpressure!,
there is a bad state which can block the topology from running normally any 
more.

The root cause: in worker/mk-backpressure-handler
if the worker-backpressure! fails once due to zk connection exception,
next time when this method gets called by WordBackpressureThread, because (when 
(not= prev-backpressure-flag curr-backpressure-flag) will never be true, the 
remote zk node can not be synced with local state.

This also explains why we will not see any problem when testing in a stable (zk 
never fail) environment.

Solution is quite straightforward: first change the zk status, if succeeds, 
change local status.

This fixes the hidden bug and removes redundant flags in executor-data and 
worker-data (since we can get the executor status directly from the 
"_throttleOn" boolean in the DisruptorQueue)
