Users upgrading to 0.90.0 need to have their .META. table updated with the 
right MEMSTORE_SIZE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-3499
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3499
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.90.0
            Reporter: Jean-Daniel Cryans
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 0.90.1


With Jack Levin, we were able to figure that users that are upgrading from a 
0.20.x era cluster have their .META. schema set with a 16KB MEMSTORE_SIZE. This 
was done in order to minimize lost meta rows when append wasn't available but 
even if we changed it in HTD, we also have to make sure all users upgrading to 
0.90 have it changed too.

In Jack's case, he ended up with 2143 storefiles in .META. during a cold start, 
slowing everything down. He reported a few times in the past that his .META. 
was always extremely busy.

We should be able to do it as a one-off thing in HMaster when opening .META. 
(an update in place).
