Release Note:
Removed the hbase-native-client module from branch-1 (it is still in Master). It is not complete. Look for a finished C++ client in the near future which may be backported to branch-1 at that point.

Description

We have an hbase-native-client subdirectory in the source tree that isn't hooked up to the Maven build. It hasn't been updated in two years. (Last update Fri Jul 31 11:22:50 2015 -0700.) I propose to remove it from our source distribution. It can be moved to GitHub as a separate project. Dropping it doesn't represent a compatibility problem as it isn't hooked up to the build and seems unlikely anyone is depending on it given we haven't had a single change nor issue reported against it for two years.
