> Topology T: coordinator = A, owners(k) = [C, D], pending_owners(k) = null
> B sends prepareCommand(tx1, put(k, v)) to C, D
> D adds backup locks and replies
> C acquires lock, ready to send reply to B
> A starts installing topology T+1: owners(k) = [C, D], pending_owners(k) = [C, E]
> A, C and E install topology T+1, B and D do not
> E requests and receives tx data from C, including tx1
> C leaves
> B sees a SuspectException, sends rollbackCommand(tx1) to C, D
> D removes tx1
> C has left, but is ignored
> B reports to the user that the tx has been rolled back
> B and D install topology T+1 (optional)
> A starts installing topology T+2: owners(k) = [D], pending_owners(k) = [E]
> A, B, D, E all install topology T+2
> E requests and receives state from D, but it does not remove tx1
> A starts installing topology T+3: owners(k) = [E], pending_owners(k) = null
> E now has a stale backup lock on k
> It seems very hard to reproduce in production: C would have to leave soon enough so that B and D haven't received the T+1 topology yet, but late enough for it to send its transaction data to E.
> A possible solution would be to catch any SuspectException during prepare/commit/rollback (without ignoring leavers), wait for a new topology, and replicate the command again on the new owners. Obviously, this wouldn't work with asynchronous prepare/commit/rollback.
