Description

hbck does not handle the case where all the regions of a table is gone. To reproduce this:
1. create table with one region
2. delete the region directory
3. run hbck --repair, which removes the region from meta as well
4. now, the meta won't contain the region, but the table dir in hdfs will be there.
