    FLUME-3223 Flume HDFS Sink should retry close prior release lease

    This is based on @mcsanady 's original pull request #202 
    I have took the test changes from him but reworked the new feature 
implementation since it failed some unit tests.
    Previously when a close failed we immediately did a recover lease. This PR 
introduces a background retry mechanism. It uses the already existing 
"hdfs.closeTries" parameter. Unfortunately it has infinite retries by default, 
that seems a bit too long for me.
    I also did a minimal code clean up.

> Flume HDFS Sink will currently only attempt to close a file once, and if that 
> fails, it will move to recoverLease. This appears to be causing some issues.
> The recommendation is to modify the close behavior to retry the close a 
> configurable number of times with a configurable interval in between before 
> attempting the recoverLease.
> There currently exists a {{closeTries}} and {{retryInterval}} property, 
> however this only retries the rename operation, not the close operation as 
> seen in the documentation:
> {quote}The file may still remain open if the close call fails but the data 
> will be intact and in this case, the file will be closed only after a Flume 
> restart.
> {quote}
