   Very nice summary @cshannon.  One additional thing we realized is that 
having a virtual file per range will help spur compaction when  there are lots 
of ranges for a single file.  For example if a tablet has 30 ranges for a singe 
file, when treating each range as a file then the compaction algorithm would 
probably compact this and prioritize it.  This is nice because we would 
probably want a single file with lots of ranges to compact, and with each range 
being treated as a file this will cause that to happen w/o specialized code. In 
addition to avoiding specialized code for the compaction case, it also avoids 
specialized config that would go with the specialized code.  The existing 
compaction ratio config will work nicely with virtual files per range.
