   ## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
   
   This dead lock is found when trying to replace the MockRatisServer with 
single server SCMRatisServer in MiniOzoneCluster.
   It can be reproduced by case 
TestContainerStateMachineFlushDelay#testContainerStateMachineFailures, when 
replacing the mock ratis server with the real one.
   
   **The root cause is**
   when close a pipeline, it will first close the open containers of this 
pipeline, then remove the pipeline. The contention here is:
   
   1. ContainerManager has committed the log entry that containing 
updateContainerState, and the StateMachineUpdater is applying this method, 
waiting for the lock of PipelineManagerV2Impl. Since when a container 
transitions from open to un-open, it needs to call 
PipelineManager#removeContainerFromPipeline, thus need the lock of 
PipelineManagerV2Impl.
   
   2. In PipelineActionHander, it has acquired the lock of 
PipelineManagerV2Impl during the call of 
PipelineManagerV2Impl#removePipeline(), and it is waiting for 
StateManager#removePipeline() to be committed by raft and applied by 
StateMachineUpdater.
   
   thus, ContainerManager occupy StateMachineUpdater, and waiting for the lock 
of PipelineManager, PipelineActionHander acquire the lock of PipelineManager, 
and waiting for StateMachineUpdater to apply its raft client request.
   
   **The solution is**
   We have PipelineManager and PipelineStateManager, ContainerManager and 
ContainerStateManager, each has its own rw lock.
   Let's discuss about PipelineManager and PipelineStateManager first.
    
   PipelineStateManager contains the in-memory state and the rocksdb. It use a 
rw lock to ensure the consistency of the in-memory state and rocksdb. This is 
done in this PR: https://github.com/apache/ozone/pull/1676
   
   The write request needs acquire the write lock before do modification, and 
the read request needs acquire the read lock before read. All the write request 
are from StateMachineUpdater, and the read requests are mainly from foreground 
request, which means all the modifications are done from ratis.
   
   For the non-HA code, the rw lock in PipelineManager is the only protection 
for thread-safety, there is no lock in PipelineStateManager. But for HA code, 
we have to rely on the rw lock in PipelineStateManager to ensure the 
thread-safety.
    
   Since currently most of the lock operations in PipelineManager and 
PipelineStateManager are duplicated, we can relax the lock in PipelineManager, 
just use it to ensure that there is at most one on-going ratis operation. 
Previous logic is acquiring the write lock of PipelineManager and doing raft 
client request, ratis client requests are serialized, we just follow this logic.
