> In branch-1 and master we have some improvement and new features on scanning 
> which is not compatible.
> A client of old version to a server of new version is compatible (must be a 
> bug if not, maybe need some test?). 
> A client of new version may not be able to read from a server of old version 
> correctly (because of scan limit, moreResults flag, etc), which is ok for 
> major/minor upgrade and we can tell users to upgrade server before upgrading 
> client. But RS also use scan to read meta. If meta table is in RS of old 
> version, all RSs of new version may have trouble while scanning meta table.
> So we should make sure meta table always in servers of new version. Force 
> meta table in Master and upgrade Master first, or assign meta table in region 
> servers with latest version?
