Currently, only the shard where the stream_plan is created on will send
streaing mutations. To utilize all the available cores, we can make each
shard send mutations which it is responsbile for. On the receiver side,
we do not forward the mutations to the shard where the stream_session is
created, so that we can avoid unnecessary forwarding.
Note: the downside is that it is now harder to:
1) to track number of bytes sent and received
2) to update the keep alive timer upon receive of the STREAM_MUTATION
To fix, we now store the sent/recieved bytes info on all shards. When
the keep alive timer expires, we check if any progress has been made.
Hopefully, this patch will make the streaming much faster and in turn
make the repair/decommission/adding a node faster.
