Cleaning up the Hadoop dist area

All,
   We should clean up some of our old releases out of the dist area. Note
that old releases (all of the way back to 0.1.0 are available on from the
archive https://archive.apache.org/dist/hadoop/common/ .

The current contents:


   - hadoop-1.2.1
   - hadoop-2.6.5
   - hadoop-2.7.4
   - hadoop-2.7.5
   - hadoop-2.8.1
   - hadoop-2.8.2
   - hadoop-2.8.3
   - hadoop-2.9.0
   - hadoop-3.0.0
   - hadoop-3.0.0-alpha4
   - hadoop-3.0.0-beta1


The Apache Release Process
https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html says
that we should only keep the latest release on each branch. That would take
us to:


   - hadoop-1.2.1
   - hadoop-2.6.5
   - hadoop-2.7.5
   - hadoop-2.8.3
   - hadoop-2.9.0
   - hadoop-3.0.0

Branch-1.2 last received a commit in 2014. I'd propose that we remove it.


   - hadoop-2.6.5
   - hadoop-2.7.5
   - hadoop-2.8.3
   - hadoop-2.9.0
   - hadoop-3.0.0

Since the remaining branches (2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, and 3.0) all have commits
within the last couple months, we should probably keep them.

Thoughts?

I also deleted the obsolete md5 files and added the preferred sha256 files.

+1 This kind of cleanup is always OK. I'd also consider dropping
2.6.5, since we've stopped releasing from branch-2.6.

+1 it's still available from archive. We're still publishing docs for
0.23.11, 1.2.1, and 2.5.2 on the project page [1]. Not sure if those
are still useful. -C
