----------------------------------
After HBASE-12375, _tmp is not safe anymore.
Attached v2.
[~mbertozzi]: Would you mind taking a look? Thanks.

>
> If the bulk load input files do not match the existing region boudaries, the
> files will be splitted.
> In the unfornate cases where the files need to be splitted multiple times,
> the process can consume unnecessary space and can even cause out of space.
> Here is over-simplified example.
> Orinal size of input files:
> consumed space: size --> 300GB
> After a round of splits:
> consumed space: size + tmpspace1 --> 300GB + 300GB
> After another round of splits:
> consumded space: size + tmpspace1 + tmpspace2 --> 300GB + 300GB + 300GB
> ..
> Currently we don't do any cleanup in the process. At least all the
> intermediate tmpspace (not the last one) can be deleted in the process.
