Hey [~ekanth], can you explain why the new test changes to 
{{TestFailureToReadEdits}} and {{TestEditLogTailer.createMiniDFSCluster}} 
introduced in v004 are necessary? Why does this patch remove the checkpoint at 
txn ID 3?

> The standby uses the following method to check if it is time to trigger edit 
> log rolling on active.
> {code}
>   /**
>    * @return true if the configured log roll period has elapsed.
>    */
>   private boolean tooLongSinceLastLoad() {
>     return logRollPeriodMs >= 0 && 
>       (monotonicNow() - lastLoadTimeMs) > logRollPeriodMs ;
>   }
> {code}
> In doTailEdits(), lastLoadTimeMs is updated when standby is able to 
> successfully tail any edits
> {code}
>       if (editsLoaded > 0) {
>         lastLoadTimeMs = monotonicNow();
>       }
> {code}
> The default configuration for {{dfs.ha.log-roll.period}} is 120 seconds and 
> {{dfs.ha.tail-edits.period}} is 60 seconds. With in-progress edit log tailing 
> enabled, tooLongSinceLastLoad() will almost never return true resulting in 
> edit logs not rolled for a long time until this configuration 
> {{dfs.namenode.edit.log.autoroll.multiplier.threshold}} takes effect.
> [In our deployment, this resulted in in-progress edit logs getting deleted. 
> The sequence of events is that standby was able to checkpoint twice while the 
> in-progress edit log was growing on active. When the 
> NNStorageRetentionManager decided to cleanup old checkpoints and edit logs, 
> it cleaned up the in-progress edit log from active and QJM (as the txnid on 
> in-progress edit log was older than the 2 most recent checkpoints) resulting 
> in irrecoverably losing a few minutes worth of metadata].
