Review comment:
No they aren't. In fact startMetaStore() doesn't know about these threads
(without this change that is). The only condition is that these threads should
be started before we call tServe.serve() as explained by the comment in
startMetaStore().
We can not start these threads unless we know that the current HMS is a
leader HMS. That happens after socket is bound. That's why I had to push
startMetaStoreThreads() inside startMetaStore(). The way it's placed now, we
won't spend time in starting these threads when the bind fails or creating
TServer thread pool fails for any reason. So, we are actually saving on some
resources in case of failures.
