Description

Multipart:

• Drop deprecated YAML config. Only config allowed is via thrift/JMX. Make this gratuitously easy to do with sane defaults and accepting changesets as opposed to full definitions.
• Combine common code between KS/CF/ColumnDefs and between thrift/avro defs.
• Provide an obvious and clean interface for changing settings locally versus globally (JMX vs. thrift). Dox here.
