Description

Its sub class MiniHBaseCluster is marked as IA.Public, so it should also be IA.Public.

And in general, HBaseCluster just provides some abstract method so I think it is OK to expose it as IA.Public.

But for MiniHBaseCluster, it exposes several internal stuff such as RegionServerThread so maybe it should not be marked as IA.Public.
