> In order to ensure that messages from a given partition in the source cluster are mirrored to the same partition in the destination cluster in the *same* order, MirrorMaker needs to produce and flush all messages that its consumer has received from source cluster before giving up partition in the cluster. 
> However, as of current implementation of Apache Kafka, this is not guaranteed and will cause out-of-order message delivery in the following scenario.
> - mirror maker process 1 fetches messages 1, 2, 3, from source cluster in one FetchRequest
> - mirror maker process 2 starts up and triggers rebalance.
> - `InternalRebalanceListenerForOldConsumer` is executed by zookeeper listener thread, which does producer.flush() and commit offset of this consumer. However, at this moment messages 1, 2, 3 haven't even been produced.
> - consumer of mirror maker process 1 releases ownership of this partition
> - consumer of mirror maker process 2 gets ownership of this partition.
> - mirror maker process 2 fetches messages 4, 5, 6 from source cluster.
> - messages 4, 5, 6 can be produced before messages 1, 2, 3. 
> To fix this problem, the rebalance listener callback function should signal MirrorMakerThread to get all messages from consumer, produce these messages to destination cluster, flush producer, and commit offset. Rebalance listener callback function should wait for MirrorMakerThread to finish these steps before it allows ownership of this partition to be released.
