Description

Port table locking to 0.94 (HBASE-7305, HBASE-7546, HBASE-7933). This is a new feature, but there has been some interest, and it is necessary for snapshots, and online merge, which are also candidates for backport.

If we port snapshots, we might need HBASE-7848 as well.

We can also do disabled by default.
