Description

HADOOP-4952 added a couple HDFS-specific configuration values to common (the block size and the replication factor) that conflict with the HDFS values (eg have the wrong defaults, wrong key name), are not used by common or hdfs and should be removed. After removing these I noticed the rest of FsConfig is only used once outside a test, and isn't tagged as a public API, I think we can remove it entirely.
