Description

Documentation for DistCp -delete option says (http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-distcp/DistCp.html):

The deletion is done by FS Shell. So the trash will be used, if it is enable.

However it seems to be no longer the case. The latest source code (https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/trunk/hadoop-tools/hadoop-distcp/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/tools/mapred/CopyCommitter.java) uses `FileSystem.delete` and trash options seems to be not applied.
