Description

I configured automatic Java style formatting for Fluo in FLUO-479. This was done using the maven-java-formatter-plugin which formats all Java classes on every build according to a specified Eclipse style configuration file. This has worked well for Fluo so Christopher Tubbs asked me to create a patch for Accumulo.

This patch will be composed of two commits. The first commit will be the configuration for the plugin. The second commit will be all changes to Java classes after the plugin is run.

While auto-formatting has been a nice addition for Fluo, it does require a lot of changes to the code initially. If you are unhappy with this change, feel free to object...
