          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 0.21.0

The fsck can get the file's block detail,but when you want see which file or 
datanode the block belongs to ,it will be helpless.
The BlockTool will be  helpfull in developing,for example when you happened to 
these message :

2008-12-25 12:12:10,049 WARN  dfs.DataNode (DataNode.java:readBlock(901)) - Got 
exception while serving blk_28622148 to /10.7
3.4.101:
java.io.IOException: Block blk_28622148 is not valid.
        at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.FSDataset.getBlockFile(FSDataset.java:541)
        at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DataNode$BlockSender.<init>(DataNode.java:1090)
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DataNode$DataXceiver.readBlock(DataNode.java:882)
        at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DataNode$DataXceiver.run(DataNode.java:840)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595)


the Blocktool may help you to get the location,it can get the file name and 
which datanodes hold the block. 
Also it can get the file or directory 's block details too.
