Description

When using BulkLoader/BulkOutputFormat, sstable's partitioner is not checked even if you have Stats.db on same directory. BulkLoader tries to stream wrong partitioned SSTables, and produces IO error. (I found this when I used Murmur3partitioner for BOF while cluster was setup for RandomPartitioner. see CASSANDRA-4813.)
It will be nice to validate partitioner when Stats.db is present to avoid causing streaming error.
