             Summary: Consolidate client striping input stream codes for 
stateful read and positional read
                 Key: HDFS-8957
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8957
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Kai Zheng
            Assignee: Kai Zheng
             Fix For: HDFS-7285


Currently we have different implementations for client striping read, having 
both *StatefulStripeReader* and *PositionStripeReader*. I attempted to 
consolidate the two implementations into one, and it results in much simpler 
codes, and also better performance. Now in both read paths, it will:
* Use ByteBuffer instead of bytes array, as currently stateful read does;
* Read directly into application's buffer, as currently positional read does;
* Try to align and merge multiple stripes, as currently positional read does;
* Use *ECChunk* version decode API.

The resultant *StripeReader* is approaching very near now to the ideal state 
desired by next step, employing *ErasureCoder* API instead of *RawErasureCoder* 
API.

Will upload an initial patch to illustrate the rough change, even though it 
depends on other issues.
