Hairong Kuang resolved HDFS-1435.
---------------------------------

      Resolution: Fixed
    Release Note: This provides an option to store fsimage compressed. The 
layout version is bumped to -25. The user could configure if s/he wants the 
fsimage to be compressed or not and which codec to use. By default the fsimage 
is not compressed.
    Hadoop Flags: [Incompatible change, Reviewed]

I've committed this!

> Our HDFS has fsimage as big as 20G bytes. It consumes a lot of network 
> bandwidth when secondary NN uploads a new fsimage to primary NN.
> If we could store fsimage compressed, the problem could be greatly alleviated.
> I plan to provide a new configuration hdfs.image.compressed with a default 
> value of false. If it is set to be true, fsimage is stored as compressed.
> The fsimage will have a new layout with a new field "compressed" in its 
> header, indicating if the namespace is stored compressed or not.
