Asynchronously calculating the Baseline (#632)

* Enable the Baseline calculation to be asynchronously done.

This will greatly fasten the rebalance speed. Basically, the WAGED rebalancer will firstly partial rebalance to recover the invalid replica allocations (for example, the ones that are on a disabled instance). Then it calculates the new baseline by global rebalancing.

WHAT IS HELIX

Helix is a generic cluster management framework used for automatic management of partitioned, replicated and distributed resources hosted on a cluster of nodes. Helix provides the following features:

  1. Automatic assignment of resource/partition to nodes
  2. Node failure detection and recovery
  3. Dynamic addition of Resources
  4. Dynamic addition of nodes to the cluster
  5. Pluggable distributed state machine to manage the state of a resource via state transitions
  6. Automatic load balancing and throttling of transitions
