Create a utility to convert binary (sequence and compressed) files to strings.

Key: HADOOP-1713
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1713
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: io
Reporter: Owen O'Malley
It would be nice to have a utility that looked at the first N bytes of a file
and picked a decoder for it into Strings. It could then be hooked up to
"bin/hadoop fs cat" and the web/ui to textify sequence and compressed files.
