Milestone
We punted on this to get Envoy support into 1.3.0 and then didn't manage to get to it in time for 1.4.0 either due to other factors.
The reason it wasn't trivial is that prepared queries don't support blocking by their nature (against multiple raft stores, possibly remote etc.). So for now we likely need to poll on some interval. Not quite sure what the appropriate interval is for that as it's potentially expensive to make cross-DC calls every few seconds from potentially thousands of hosts. We could have a conservative one for now and make it configurable perhaps?
