For configuring failover host, two new config parameters were introduced:
standby_host and standby_port.
As to not breaking exiting configurations and to avoid premature optimization the original host and port configuration parameters were not replaced by a dict of host:port combinations to allow for more than two failover hosts. If in future this will be supported by webhdfs we might need to change this.
