Review Comment:
   >>do you use this feature on a large scale? Does creating a lot of hard 
links have a maintenance impact on the system? 
   
   Now Hadoop version upgrade depends on  linux hardlink.   And hardlink is 
lightweight and it only link a new pointer points to the original file.   
   
   >> Have you considered implementing it based on rename?
   
   Now  src and dst have different  block name.  And it points the same file 
address.  @tomscut

> Add a new method copyBlockCrossNamespace in DataTransferProtocol at the 
> DataNode Side.
> This method will copy a source block from one namespace to a target block 
> from a different namespace. If the target DN is the same with the current DN, 
> this method will copy the block via HardLink. If the target DN is different 
> with the current DN, this method will copy the block via TransferBlock.
> This method will contains some parameters:
>  * ExtendedBlock sourceBlock
>  * Token<BlockTokenIdentifier> sourceBlockToken
>  * ExtendedBlock targetBlock
>  * Token<BlockTokenIdentifier> targetBlockToken
>  * DatanodeInfo targetDN
