> This was discovered while tracking down a spike in the number of  SSTables 
> per read for a COMPACT STORAGE table after a 2.1 -> 3.0 upgrade. Before 3.0, 
> there is no direct analog of 3.0's primary key liveness info. When we upgrade 
> 2.1 COMPACT STORAGE SSTables to the mf format, we simply don't write row 
> timestamps, even if the original mutations were INSERTs. On read, when we 
> look at SSTables in order from newest to oldest max timestamp, we expect to 
> have this primary key liveness information to determine whether we can skip 
> older SSTables after finding completely populated rows.
> ex. I have three SSTables in a COMPACT STORAGE table with max timestamps 
> 1000, 2000, and 3000. There are many rows in a particular partition, making 
> filtering on the min and max clustering effectively a no-op. All data is 
> inserted, and there are no partial updates. A fully specified row with 
> timestamp 2500 exists in the SSTable with a max timestamp of 3000. With a 
> proper row timestamp in hand, we can easily ignore the SSTables w/ max 
> timestamps of 1000 and 2000. Without it, we read 3 SSTables instead of 1, 
> which likely means a significant performance regression. 
> The following test illustrates this difference in behavior between 2.1 and 
> 3.0:

> A solution here might be as simple as having 
> {{SinglePartitionReadCommand#canRemoveRow()}} only inspect primary key 
> liveness information for non-compact/CQL tables. Tombstones seem to be 
> handled at a level above that anyway. (One potential problem with that is 
> whether or not the distinction will continue to exist in 4.0, and dropping 
> compact storage from a table doesn't magically make pk liveness information 
> appear.)
