Review comment:
       I read the PR,  here is my feeling: 
   
   First of all, I like the idea to use a single `FileAppenderFactory` to 
customize different writers for different computing engines,  it's unified and 
graceful.  Developers would find it's easy to understand and customize.
   
   Second, I agreed that it's necessary to consider the sort order for position 
delete writer. We have to sort the pairs in memory (it's similar to the process 
about flushing the sorted memstore to HFiles in HBase.), once our memory size 
reached the threshold then would flush it to pos-delete file,  then the rolling 
policy is decided by the memory size rather than the current file size.  Sounds 
reasonable to make it to be a separate pos-writer. 
   
   Third,  I'd like to finish the whole cdc write path work (PoC) based on 
#1802 to see whether there're other issues.
   
   Thanks.
