Support Datanode layout changes with rolling upgrade.

If we choose this approach, we > should make sure that the system administrator gets a helpful error message > and a clean failure when trying to use rolling upgrade to a version that > doesn't support it. Based on the compatibility guarantees described in > HDFS-5535, this would mean that *any* future DataNode layout changes would > require a major version upgrade. > Another approach would be to support rolling upgrade from an old DN storage > layout to a new layout. This approach requires us to change our > documentation to explain to users that they should supply the {{\-rollback}} > command on the command-line when re-starting the DataNodes during rolling > rollback. Currently the documentation just says to restart the DataNode > normally. > Another issue here is that the DataNode's usage message describes rollback > options that no longer exist. The help text says that the DN supports > {{\-rollingupgrade rollback}}, but this option was removed by HDFS-6005. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
