Review comment:
       @Apache9, we're failing the `InitMetaProcedure` with an `IOException`, 
and HMaster will fail the master startup if `InitMetaProcedure` is `FAILED` 
with an exception. 
   
   Still, alternatively, we could continue the bootstrap without throwing (but 
this is not good as you recommended)
   
   so, do you think this change align with your comments?
