@kishoreg We have a request here that it would be handy to retrieve zk
address from ZkHelixManager for user components to perform some customized
operations in ZooKeeper without sharing same ZkClient with same helix
component. As zk address is part of ZkHelixManager's configurations so adding a
getter here fits the semantics.
To make it more general (also to introduce less code change), such method
should be part of HelixManager interface, and "MetadataStore" is a more generic
name to use here.
