-------------------------------------

Since HADOOP-6904 breaks the compilation of HDFS, the patch can not go through 
hudson. I just committed the patch.

> HDFS side of HADOOP-6904: first step towards inter-version communications 
> between dfs client and NameNode

> The idea is that for getProtocolVersion, NameNode checks if the client and 
> server versions are compatible if the server version is greater than the 
> client version. If no, throws a VersionIncompatible exception; otherwise, 
> returns the server version.
> On the dfs client side, when creating a NameNode proxy, catches the 
> VersionMismatch exception and then checks if the client version and the 
> server version are compatible if the client version is greater than the 
> server version. If not compatible, throws exception VersionIncomptible; 
> otherwise, records the server version and continues.
