ACCUMULO-1556 Clarify initialization error for used fs
The Initialize class now generates clearer and more informative
error messages if an initialized instance is discovered. The
messages vary depending on whether instance.dfs.uri is used. The
values of instance.dfs.uri and instance.dfs.dir are also logged.
> Initialize could use a better warning when HDFS dir is already populated

>
> When attempting to initialize Accumulo and the instance.dfs.dir is pointing
> at a directory in HDFS which has already been initialized, you get a very
> undescriptive warning message which doesn't actually say refer to the fact
> that this is an HDFS directory.
> {noformat}
> [util.Initialize] FATAL: It appears this location was previously initialized,
> exiting ...
> {noformat}
> It would be better to be explicit and tell the user that their
> $instance.dfs.dir value already has been initialized in HDFS instead of
> leaving that up to the user to discern.
