Description

Currently SnappyCodec is doing:

  public static boolean isNativeSnappyLoaded(Configuration conf) {
    return LoadSnappy.isLoaded() && conf.getBoolean(
        CommonConfigurationKeys.IO_NATIVE_LIB_AVAILABLE_KEY,
        CommonConfigurationKeys.IO_NATIVE_LIB_AVAILABLE_DEFAULT);
  }

But the conf check is wrong as it defaults to true. Instead it should use NativeCodeLoader.isNativeCodeLoaded()
