> When two sequence files, which have same Key type but different Value types, 
> are mapped out to reduce, multiple Value types is not allowed. In this case, 
> we need a way to wrap instances with different types into one class type to 
> reduce.
> In current code, ObjectWritable is a sole choice. but it costs too many 
> space, because the class declaration will be appended into output file as a 
> string for every Key-value pair.
