Update zookeeper.md (#6565)

* Update zookeeper.md

As part of a docs sprint in Melbourne I made a very initial pass at trying to tidy this up a little, I would like to have done much much more, but it's a start…

* Updates from feedback

* Format markdown

consensus protocol to replicate a state machine across all servers in the ensemble.
The ensemble uses the Zab protocol to elect a leader, and
data can not be written until a leader is elected. Once a leader is
elected, the ensemble uses Zab to ensure that all writes are replicated to a
quorum before they are acknowledged and made visible to clients. Without respect
to weighted quorums, a quorum is a majority component of the ensemble containing
the current leader. For instance, if the ensemble has three servers, a component
that contains the leader and one other server constitutes a quorum. If the
ensemble can not achieve a quorum, data can not be written.

ZooKeeper servers keep their entire state machine in memory, but every mutation
is written to a durable WAL (Write Ahead Log) on storage media. When a server
crashes, it can recover its previous state by replaying the WAL. In order to
prevent the WAL from growing without bound, ZooKeeper servers will periodically
snapshot their in memory state to storage media. These snapshots can be loaded
directly into memory, and all WAL entries that preceded the snapshot may be
safely discarded.
