/**
 * There are different recompaction conditions and their combinations in Gobblin recompaction flow . For example,
 * depending on the number of late records, number of late files, or the late files duration, user may choose
 * different criteria or different combination strategies to decide if a recompaction is mandatory.
 *
 * The interface {@link RecompactionCondition} provides a generic API. This is used when
 * {@link org.apache.gobblin.compaction.mapreduce.MRCompactorJobRunner} attempts to check if a recompaction is necessary. Real
 * examination is delegated to {@link org.apache.gobblin.compaction.dataset.Dataset#checkIfNeedToRecompact(DatasetHelper)},
 * which finally invokes this API.
