---------------------------------
Per off-line discussion with [~rakeshr], he'd like to help with this and so
reassigned. Thanks Rakesh for the taking!

> As discussed in HDFS-8430 and HDFS-9694, to compute striped file checksum
> even some of striped blocks are missed, we need to consider recomputing block
> checksum on the fly for the missed/corrupt blocks. To recompute the block
> checksum, the block data needs to be reconstructed by erasure decoding, and
> the main needed codes for the block reconstruction could be borrowed from
> HDFS-9719, the refactoring of the existing {{ErasureCodingWorker}}. In EC
> worker, reconstructed blocks need to be written out to target datanodes, but
> here in this case, the remote writing isn't necessary, as the reconstructed
> block data is only used to recompute the checksum.
