Review Comment:
   If a follower shutdowns, clears the logs and meta conf, and then restarts 
(just as what we do in `runTestBootstrapReconf`), the unaware leader will still 
maintain the matchIndex (previously before shutdown) of this follower 
unchanged.  The changes here will cause the nextIndex never being correctly 
updated. I think we can tolerate some inconsistent AppendEntries in trade for 
fault tolerance and robustness. What do you think @szetszwo ?
