Description

CHANGED, was: Don't allow "recovered.edits" as legal family name

Region directories can contain folders called "recovered.edits", log splitting related.
But there's nothing that prevent a user to create a family with that name...

HLog.RECOVERED_EDITS_DIR = "recovered.edits";
HRegion.MERGEDIR = "merges"; // fixed with HBASE-6158
SplitTransaction.SPLITDIR = "splits"; // fixed with HBASE-6158
