Need a flag using which Master component status can be known standby or active.

A) A functionality can be added to Master Component so that active/standby status of route can be known.

Consumer consumer = route.getConsumer();

if (consumer instanceof MasterConsumer) {

        MasterConsumer master = (MasterConsumer)consumer;

        if (master.isMaster()) {

              // do stuff

        }

}

MasterComponent might needs this method for that within MasterConsumer class :

public boolean isMaster() {

   return singleton.isMaster();

}

B) Master component state should also be shown in hawtio. Within Camel Tab where it display route-list, there we can display a flag/icon/value to specify that if route is Master or standby. This would help user to easily identify route status.
