Description
Resurrecting HBASE-2988.
Currently we can specify a compression algorithm for a column family, or, optionally an alternative compression algorithm to use when compacting (as opposed to flushing). Extend this to optionally specify alternative compression algorithms for minor or major compactions. The interest here is specifically a separate alternative algorithm for major compactions, which might be an expensive but aggressively compressing algorithm like bzip2 or lzma (with custom patches).
