> Currently {{Upgrader}} receives an sstable in any readable format, and writes
> into {{BigFormat.getLatestVersion()}}. We should generalize it by making it
> receive a {{target}} version and probably also rename it to
> {{SSTableConverter}}.
> Based on this we can create an {{StandaloneDowngrader}} tool which will
> perform downgrade of specified sstables to a target version. To start with,
> we should support only downgrading to {{ma}} format (from current format
> {{mb}}), downgrade to any other version should be forbidden. Since we already
> support serializing to "ma" we will not need to do any data conversion.
> We should also create a test suite that creates an sstable with data in the
> current format, perform the downgrade, and verify data in the new format is
> correct. This will be the base tests suite for more advanced conversions in
> the future.
