> We store each tag's length and total tags length with 2 bytes in KeyValue 
> buffer, HFiles etc and we treat these lengths as short through out the code.  
> So the max length can be Short.MAX_VALUE.   We can treat these lengths as 
> unsigned and +ve always.  So we can actually treat these lengths as int and 
> store with 2 bytes so that the max length can reach 65535.
