> We have KeyValueCodec as the default RPC codec now. This can only encode KeyValue types and need to convert any non KV cell to KeyValue format. This is a expensive op. 
> {code}
>   // This is crass and will not work when KV changes. Also if passed a non-kv Cell, it will
>   // make expensive copy.
>   // Do not write tags over RPC
>   KeyValue.oswrite((KeyValue) KeyValueUtil.ensureKeyValue(cell), this.out, false);
> {code}
> Now we want Cell to be in entire read path and don't want any copy until we write the cell to client. 
> The optimization done in the DBE of avoiding copying of value bytes was also not getting real advantage bacause of this ensureKeyValue() call at the Codec.
> We can encode and write non KeyValue cells with KV serialization format and avoid the recreate.
