stack updated HBASE-2482:
-------------------------

    Attachment: 2482-unittest.txt

First cut at unit test.  Needs an edit but looks to be working.  Adds a 
protected 'killl' to regionserver which simulates RS kill (does no cleanup but 
shutdown of socket).  Also added new HMsg called TEST_MSG_BLOCK_RS.  When RS 
receives this from master, it just waits until closed, aborted or killed.  It 
blocks the worker queue.

The way the test works is that it adds a new RS to small cluster, waits on load 
balancer to move some regions to new server.  As soon as some are open, we send 
a close of them all followed by a TEST_MSG_BLOCK_RS.  The closes go through, 
balancer assigns the new server some of the closed regions only the 
TEST_MSG_BLOCK_RS is in place.

Let me make a patch that includes Todds patch and cleaned up test next.

> regions in transition do not get reassigned by master when RS crashes

> Very similar to HBASE-1928, but for the general case (not just ROOT/META):
> If a region is in transition on a RS when the RS crashes, the master does not 
> remove it from regionsInTransition when processing the RS shutdown. This is 
> fairly easy to trigger by bringing up a RS and kill -9ing it just as it 
> starts to get regions assigned. Those regions will get permanently lost since 
> they're stuck in regionsInTransition and thus don't get assigned by the 
> metascanner.
