BOOKKEEPER-1045: Execute tests in different JVM processes
The current Maven Surefire configuration is using:
```xml
<forkMode>always</forkMode>
```
This is a deprecated config and apparently it's not creating new processes
for each test as intended.
Currently the tests are leaking a big number of files and threads due to
several reasons:
* Tests that instantiate bookies and call shutdown() without calling
start() before are creating and initializing the ledger storage but not closing
it, leaking threads and several fds
* ZooKeeperClient sometimes doesn't shutdown the zk handle if the test
completes too quickly, leaking sockets.
* Several tests are passing bad config, so the bookie/client start gets
exception (on purpose) and then doesn't clean up some partial objects.
* ...
That make running the test suite to be dependent on ulimit of the machine.
Until we can fix (almost) all the test to do proper cleanup, we should make
maven to run tests in separated processes.
