 Review comment:
   It's not about TASK_NAME really. That's just an indicator. What we really 
need to test is loading a class and creating a thread when it's specified in 
config. For that we need different loadable classes. We could have created a 
base class and extended it but that adds one more class and there's nothing 
much value in de-duplicating the code. We do not duplicate the code to avoid 
hazards of duplicating the code like bug fixes, changes at multiple places. 
Nothing of that sort is possible here. Further, having the code duplicated 
gives future flexibility to change code in each of those classes like changing 
runFrequency() or actual run() implementation, which is more desirable.

> HMS performs housekeeping tasks. When there are multiple HMSes we need to 
> have a leader HMS elected which will carry out those housekeeping tasks. 
> These tasks include execution of compaction tasks, auto-discovering 
> partitions for external tables, generation of compaction tasks, repl thread 
> etc.
> Note that, though the code for compaction tasks, auto-discovery of partitions 
> etc. is in Hive, the actual tasks are initiated by an HMS configured to do 
> so. So, leader election is required only for HMS and not for HS2.
