----------------------------------------------------------------

[~elserj] so the issue comes in that with enough machines on a cluster the 
number of report region in transition actions can over whelm the entire 
priority threads. That means that the meta movement can be finalized. However 
if meta is in transition none of the reportRegionStateTransition calls can 
complete until meta is online.

Before HBASE-13351 report region in transition for meta went to the priority 
thread all other report region in transition calls went to the default thread 
pool ( write pool if RW thread pool was enabled ). HBASE-13351 made it so all 
calls to reportRegionStateTransition went to the same pool.
