Victor Bittorf 4339133887 Adding SEQUENCEFILE compressed record format ...

Currently we do not support per record compression for SEQUENCEFILE; we do support no
compression and block compression. Per record compression is typically very slow
(since the compressor is invoked per record in the table) and not widely used.

We chose to add support for per record compression as part of our effort to use Impala
for all of our testdata loading infrastructure. We have per record compressed tables
in testdata, so even though there is no customer demand for per record compression,
we need it to migrate our data loading off of Hive.
