KAFKA-5415: Remove timestamp check in completeTransitionTo
This assertion is hard to get right because the system time can roll
backward on a host due to NTP (as shown in the ticket), and also because a
transaction can start on one host and complete on another. Getting precise
clock times across hosts is virtually impossible, and this check makes things
fragile.
You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running:
$ git pull https://github.com/apurvam/kafka
