Mechanism for atomic recovery from partial failure when atomically bulk-loading 
multi-CF rows.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-4652
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4652
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh


The suggestions from HBASE-4552 and initial implementations could violate row 
atomicity if there are multiple CFs.  A mechanism to atomically rollback or 
commit only upon completion (mvcc at the store level) is needed if a partial 
failures encountered when attempting to bulk load multiple families.

For example, let's say I want to bulk load a region with cfs A, B, C. I issue a 
call to an RS region to atomically bulkload the HFiles. The RS loads A and B 
successfully but fails on C (hdfs failure, or rs goes down, etc). We could 
rollback A and B - if we don't we would have A and B loaded but not C and have 
an atomicity violation.
