Review comment:
       Correct me if I misunderstand you question. The reason why we try to 
generate a new base file here rather than end up this compaction operation is 
that any upsert occurs after compaction plan generated will use compaction 
commit time as new log file base commit time. Such a fileSlice is comprised by 
new log file and basefile generated by compaction. If hoodieCompactor didn't 
generate a basefile for this fileSlice, Filegroup will lose all data in 
baseFile in new and following Fileslices.
