current implementation of MapWritable and AbstractMapWritable do not track class usage. Class name is still serialized in write() to disk even if no instance of such class exists in stored table anymore.

I propose to add usage tracking to AbstractMapWritable addToMap(Class clazz) and provide function removeFromMap which will be called by MapWritable. I can code such patch,. but i am inexperienced in hadoop development, What hadoop branch should i target?
