---------------------------------------------------------
In backup package, a new class would be added which extends
WALActionsListener.Base
It overrides postAppend() where we look for Cell with qualifier of
WALEdit.BULK_LOAD.
If found, BulkLoadDescriptor is extracted and StoreDescriptor's can be
retrieved.
The store file list would be persisted to hbase:backup table.

In principal, the above is in line with my earlier comments.

> Priority: Critical

> Fix For: 2.0.0

>
> Currently, incremental backup is based on WAL files. Bulk data loading
> bypasses WALs for obvious reasons, breaking incremental backups. The only way
> to continue backups after bulk loading is to create new full backup of a
> table. This may not be feasible for customers who do bulk loading regularly
> (say, every day).
