Description

Apparently the interleaving of events among StripedDataStreamer's is very tricky to handle. Walter Su and Jing Zhao have discussed several race conditions under HDFS-9040.

Let's use FaultInjector to emulate different combinations of interleaved events.

In particular, we should consider inject delays in the following places:

1. Streamer#endBlock
2. Streamer#locateFollowingBlock
3. Streamer#updateBlockForPipeline
4. Streamer#updatePipeline
5. OutputStream#writeChunk
6. OutputStream#close
