Description

Currently since the code path for bootstrap load and import has been separated, there is redundant code in the repl boostrap load code path where in LoadPartitions looks for replicationSpec.isMetadataOnly() which should never happen. Something similar also happens while bootstrap dump. Look at the relevant code paths to clean up code and remove zombie code.
