Review comment:
       This is not about the writeIds, it is about the txnId. If you have a 
data from a database where there were high amount of transaction and the 
compaction run on the table, you will have some high txnId in the 
visibilityTxnId in the name of the compacted folder.
   If you then move this data to a cluster with less transaction (ex. a test 
cluster) and you run the msck repair, you have to skip the txnId forward so the 
next query will read the compacted folder. Here the race condition is, that 
somehow the txnId sequence gets ahead of you between the check and the seeding 
the value, in that case we throw this exception to not to set the sequence 
backward. Anyway, in this case if you run the msck repair again it will 
succeed, since the txnid will be high enough. 
   The writeId race condition won't cause a problem I think, since if some 
other transaction allocated the first writeId the seedWriteId will fail on the 
unique constraint on the table
