stack updated HBASE-20237:
--------------------------
    Release Note: 
Throw UnknownProtocolException if a client connects and tries to invoke the old 
getClosestRowOrBefore method. Pre-hbase-1.0.0 or asynchbase do this instead of 
using its replacement, the reverse Scan.

getClosestRowOrBefore was implemented as a flag on Get. Before this patch 
though the flag was set, hbase2 were ignoring it. This made it look like a 
pre-1.0.0 client was 'working' but then it'd fail finding the appropriate 
Region for a client-specified row doing lookups into hbase:meta.
         Summary: Put back getClosestRowBefore and throw 
UnknownProtocolException instead... for asynchbase client  (was: Put back 
getClosestRowBefore and throw UnsupportedOperation instead... for asynchbase 
client)

> asychbase can work against all hbase versions. This fact has saved us a few 
> times; e.g. LINE were able to migrate from 0.94 to 1.2 going in part via 
> asynchbase and its ability to work against all servers.
> hbase2 breaks this ability of asynchbase. There is nothing for asynchbase to 
> figure definitively that it is talking to an hbase2 server (See HBASE-20225). 
> Lets add back something it can leverage.  HBASE-13954 did a nice job purging 
> getClosestRowBefore. Lets put back an RPC stuff that throws an exception if 
> it gets called. Thats enough for asynchbase.
