Hi Suraj!

Thanks a lot for all your efforts to improve DistCp. My sincere apologies for 
not paying attention to this issue. I'm sorry I was a bit busy when you had 
asked and then never got back to this issue. Yongjun seems to want this in, so 
we'll make another push for it. 
Here's a rebase for the latest trunk. I'll try to review and test it in the 
coming days.

> DistCp utility should have capability to store data in user specified 
> compression format. This avoids one hop of compressing data after transfer. 
> Backup strategies to different cluster also get benefit of saving one IO 
> operation to and from HDFS, thus saving resources, time and effort.
> * Create an option -compressOutput defaulting to 
> {{org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.BZip2Codec}}. 
> * Users will be able to change codec with {{-D 
> mapreduce.output.fileoutputformat.compress.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.GzipCodec}}
> * If distcp compression is enabled, suffix the filenames with default codec 
> extension to indicate the file is compressed. Thus users can be aware of what 
> codec was used to compress the data.
