-------------------------------------
Please give me some time to review. I am more concerned about triggering
mechanism. Please do fully test it while we are reviewing.

> In date tiered compaction, the store files older than max age are never
> touched by minor compactions. Here we introduce a 'freeze window' operation,
> which does the follow things:
> 1. Find all store files that contains cells whose timestamp are in the give
> window.
> 2. Compaction all these files and output one file for each window that these
> files covered.
> After the compaction, we will have only one in the give window, and all cells
> whose timestamp are in the give window are in the only file. And if you do
> not write new cells with an older timestamp in this window, the file will
> never be changed. This makes it easier to do erasure coding on the freezed
> file to reduce redundence. And also, it makes it possible to check
> consistency between master and peer cluster incrementally.
> And why use the word 'freeze'?
> Because there is already an 'HFileArchiver' class. I want to use a different
> word to prevent confusing.
