Review request for hbase.
Summary
-------
Free up RPC server Handler thread if the called routine specifies the call
should be delayed. The RPC client sees no difference, changes are server-side
only. This is based on the previous submitted patch from Dhruba.
This addresses bug HBASE-3899.

> In the current implementation, the server handler thread picks up an item
> from the incoming callqueue, processes it and then wraps the response as a
> Writable and sends it back to the IPC server module. This wastes
> thread-resources when the thread is blocked for disk IO (transaction logging,
> read into block cache, etc).
> It would be nice if we can make the RPC Server Handler threads pick up a call
> from the IPC queue, hand it over to the application (e.g. HRegion), the
> application can queue it to be processed asynchronously and send a response
> back to the IPC server module saying that the response is not ready. The RPC
> Server Handler thread is now ready to pick up another request from the
> incoming callqueue. When the queued call is processed by the application, it
> indicates to the IPC module that the response is now ready to be sent back to
> the client.
> The RPC client continues to experience the same behaviour as before. A RPC
> client is synchronous and blocks till the response arrives.
> This RPC enhancement allows us to do very powerful things with the
> RegionServer. In future, we can make enhance the RegionServer's threading
> model to a message-passing model for better performance. We will not be
> limited by the number of threads in the RegionServer.
