------------------------------------------------
bq. If u strongly feel otherwise I can change.
I would prefer putInt, putShort() still. The layer using that can easily know
what it is doing.
bq.Not sure.. I feel these should go to some sort of comparator impl.
May be the name comapre is not right? But it may be needed in place where a
given byte[] is checked against the BR contents. For eg in the HfileBlock we
compare the HFileBlock's byte[] with a magic array. So in such cases we need
this. So it is not necessary a different type of comparator.

> While doing HBASE-10713 I came across the need to write int/long (and read
> also) from a ByteRange. CellBlocks are backed by ByteRange. So we can add
> such APIs.
> Also as per HBASE-10750 we return a ByteRange from MSLAB and also discussion
> under HBASE-10191 suggest we can have BR backed HFileBlocks etc.
