> A follower/leader should block in Leader.waitForEpochAck() until either
> electingFollowers contains a quorum and electionFinished=true or until a
> timeout occurs. A timeout means that a quorum of followers didn't ack the
> epoch on time, which is an error.
> But the check in Leader.waitForEpochAck() is "if (waitingForNewEpoch)
> throw..." and this will never be triggered, even if the wait statement just
> timed out, because Leader.getEpochToPropose() completes and sets
> waitingForNewEpoch to false before Leader.waitForEpochAck() is invoked.
> Instead of "if (waitingForNewEpoch) throw" the condition in
> Leader.waitForEpochAck() should be "if (!electionFinished) throw".
> The guarded block introduced in ZK-1191 should be checking !electionFinished.
