Why is the change necessary?
> SingleMergeExchange is not scaling up when many minor fragments are allocated

> On a 10 node cluster if the table is huge then DRILL can spawn many minor
> fragments which are all merged on a single node with one merge receiver.
> Doing so will create lot of memory pressure on the receiver node and also
> execution bottleneck. To address this issue, merge receiver should be
> multiphase merge receiver.
> Ideally for large cluster one can introduce tree merges so that merging can
> be done parallel. But as a first step I think it is better to use the
> existing infrastructure for multiplexing operators to generate an OrderedMux
> so that all the minor fragments pertaining to one DRILLBIT should be merged
> and the merged data can be sent across to the receiver operator.
> On a 10 node cluster if each node processes 14 minor fragments.
> Current version of code merges 140 minor fragments
> the proposed version has two level merges 1 - 14 merge in each drillbit which
> is parallel
> and 10 minorfragments are merged at the receiver node.
