Description

In order to fix HELIX-552, we made a backward incompatible change in StateModelFactory:

- public abstract T createNewStateModel(String partitionName)
+ public abstract T createNewStateModel(String resourceName, String partitionName)

This introduces some issues when people upgrade helix. To mitigate the problem, we need bring back the old abstract method. Make it deprecated instead of removing it.

The backward incompatible commit is here:
