has logic to check {{needBalance}} and not use the one from SimpleLoadBalancer

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug

>
> StochasticLoadBalancer has become the default balancer since 0.98.0. But its
> balanceCluster method still uses the BaseLoadBalancer.needBalance() which is
> originally designed for SimpleLoadBalancer. It's all based on the number of
> regions on the regionservers.
> This can cause such a problem: when the cluster has some Hot Spot Region, the
> balance process may not be triggered because the numbers of regions on the
> RegionServers are averaged.
