To illustrate the issue I create a clone and then list the metadata files.
The original table is tableA (id=1), the clone is cloneA (id=5). The resulting
files for the clone look like
```
5;0020 file:hdfs://localhost:8020/accumulo/tables/1/t-000004d/A0000009.rf
```
If the table id in pulled from the file path, it would show id=1, the file
really belongs to id=5. Both tableA and cloneA are "sharing" the file. If
cloneA (id=5) is compacted, new files will be created under the id=5 directory.

Output of tables -ls:
```
> tables -ls
accumulo.metadata => !0
accumulo.root => +r
accumulo.replication => +rep
tableA => 1
tableB => 2
tableC => 3
tableD => 4
cloneA => 5
```
Listing the metadata files:
```
> scan -np -t accumulo.metadata -c file
