> The solution would be to add support to auto detect encryption parameters
> similar to other parameters like compression, datablockencoding, etc when
> encryption is enabled for hfile format 3.
> The current patch does the following:
> 1. Automatically detects encryption type and key in HFileOutputFormat &
> HFileOutputFormat2.
> 2. Uses Base64encoder/decoder for url passing of Encryption key which is in
> bytes format
