---------------------------------------------

3.11 PR looks good, modulo one minor nit

> To reproduce create the following table:

> drop keyspace test;
> create keyspace test WITH replication = {'class':'SimpleStrategy', 
> 'replication_factor' : 1};
> CREATE TABLE test.test (
>     key text PRIMARY KEY,
>     id text

> '3000', 'tombstone_threshold': '0.1', 'unchecked_tombstone_compaction':

>     AND speculative_retry = '99PERCENTILE';
> CREATE INDEX id_idx ON test.test (id);

> insert into test.test (key,id) values('$RANDOM_UUID $RANDOM_UUID',

> {noformat}
> Notice how all inserts have a 10s TTL, the default 10s TTL and gc_grace is 
> also at 10s. This is to speed up the repro:
> - Run the load for a couple minutes and track sstables disk usage. You will 
> see it does only increase, nothing gets cleaned up and it doesn't stop 
> growing (notice all this is well past the 10s gc_grace and TTL)
> - Running a flush and a compaction while under load against the keyspace, 
> table or index doesn't solve the issue.
> - Stopping the load and running a compaction doesn't solve the issue. 
> Flushing does though.
> - On the original observation where TTL was around 600s and gc_grace around 
> 1800s we could get GBs of sstables that weren't cleaned up or compacted away 
> after hours of work.
> - Reproduction can also happen on plain sstables by repeatedly 
> inserting/deleting/overwriting the same values over and over again without 2i 
> indices or TTL being involved.
> The problem seems to be 
> [EncodingStats|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-3.11/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/rows/EncodingStats.java#L48]
>  using a synthetic Epoch in 2015 which plays nice with Vint serialization.  
> Unfortunately {{Memtable}} is using that to keep track of the 
> {{minTimestamp}} which can leak the 2015 Epoch. This confuses any logic 
> consuming that timestamp. In this particular case purge and fully expired 
> sstables weren't properly detected.
