FileContext needs a method to test for existence of a file or directory.

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6893
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: fs
            Reporter: Owen O'Malley


FileContext is missing a method to ask if a file or directory exists. Currently 
the only mechanism is to use getFileStatus, which throws an exception if the 
file doesn't exist, which I don't think is an appropriate use of that method.
