Masatake Iwasaki updated HADOOP-12160:
--------------------------------------
    Attachment: HADOOP-12177.001.patch

I attached 001.

I fixed specification and added tests for Snapshot API assuming it does not 
have many contract in the context of {{FileSystem}}. The contract consists of

* Snapshot has name associated with each Path
* Snapshot has Path representing the snapshot
** {{createSnapshot}} returns the path.
** FileSystem operations can use the path to access files in the snapshot.
  
I did not explain about below assuming it is specific to HDFS implementation.

* Administrator need to enable snapshot on each directory by 
{{DistributedFileSystem#allowSnapshot}}
* Snapshot is created on directory

> Add snapshot APIs to the FileSystem specification
