> HBASE-4489 changed the default endKey on HexStringSplit from 7FFF... to
> FFFF... While this is correct, existing users of 0.90 RegionSplitter have
> 7FFF as the end key in their schema and the last region will not split
> properly under this new code. We need to let the user specify a custom
> start/end key range for when situations like this arise. Optimally, we
> should also write the start/end key in META so we could figure this out
> implicitly instead of requiring the user to explicitly specify it.
