> User may drop table accidentally because of error code or other uncertain
> reasons.
> Unfortunately, it happens in our environment because one user make a mistake
> between production cluster and testing cluster.
> So, I just give a suggestion, do we need to support an option to keep data of
> dropped table for some time, e.g. 1 day
> In the patch:
> We make a new dir named .trashtables in the rood dir.
> In the DeleteTableHandler, we move files in dropped table's dir to trash
> table dir instead of deleting them directly.
> And Create new class TrashTableCleaner which will clean dropped tables if it
> is time out with a period check.
> Default keep time for dropped tables is 1 day, and check period is 1 hour.
