stack updated HBASE-1730:
-------------------------

    Attachment: 1730-v2.patch

More work on HCD.  Removes UnmodifyableHCD.  Since HCD now implements map, can 
just do a Collections.unmodifyableMap wrapper on delegate Map.  Jackson is 
sweet in that for new HCD.toString, I ask jackson to serialize to a 
StringReader.  It produces something like a ruby Map -- e..g. {"NAME": "cf1", 
"IN_MEMORY": true, "COMPRESSION", "LZO"} -- only I can then take this 'String' 
and deserialize to get me back the original HCD.  Nice for shell, UI, and 
content of a znode (I don't think we need to get toBinaryString in there since 
I don't think we have binary data in schema and table state).  Working on HTD 
next.

> We should not need to take a table offline to update HCD or HTD. 
> One option for that is putting HTDs and HCDs up into ZK, with mirror on disk 
> catalog tables to be used only for cold init scenarios, as discussed on IRC. 
> In this scheme, regionservers hosting regions of a table would watch 
> permanent nodes in ZK associated with that table for schema updates and take 
> appropriate actions out of the watcher. In effect, schema updates become 
> another item in the ToDo list.
> {{/hbase/tables/<table-name>/schema}}
> Must be associated with a write locking scheme also handled with ZK 
> primitives to avoid situations where one concurrent update clobbers another.
