Review Comment:
   It's crucial to make sure backward compatibility, especially because stats 
in metastore are meant to be interoperable between engines, so if we are 
breaking compatibility with other engines using an older datasketch version, we 
must highlight it clearly.
   
   I suggest to just do a quick test locally, compute with 1.2, print the 
quantiles, write to a file, load it with the current version and display the 
same. It can be just a blank java project with a main class, you don't even 
need Hive to test that, as we rely on the serde of the library.
