Replication initial sync creates cursors with no timeout

      Both the cloner and oplog fetcher in replication initial sync use a cursor with no timeout:

      2016-11-03T19:58:56.081+0000 I COMMAND  [conn47601] command buildlogs.logs command: find { find: "logs", noCursorTimeout: true, batchSize: 13981010 } planSummary: COLLSCAN cursorid:45904553724 keysExamined:0 docsExamined:822 numYields:14 nreturned:821 reslen:16750452 locks:{ Global: { acquireCount: { r: 30 } }, Database: { acquireCount: { r: 15 } }, Collection: { acquireCount: { r: 15 } } } protocol:op_command 447ms
      

      While both these components have graceful shutdown and clean up the cursors that they open, in case of network failure or crash of a secondary node, these cursors will be leaked and never get cleaned up.

      This is especially problematic with replica set shards, because having a cursor open on a sharded collection will eventually block migrations to that shard:
