             Summary: Remove unnecessary null DEFAULT_VALUE in TableDescriptorBuilder
                 Key: HBASE-28334
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-28334
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Bryan Beaudreault


With ERASURE_CODING_POLICY, the default value is null (no policy). I added a record of that in DEFAULT_VALUES, because other settings seemed to do that.

A null value is never stored on a HTD because our code handles removing from map when setting null. So we'd never have an opportunity to match against the DEFAULT_VALUE. If someone tried setting a string value "null", that would fail validation because it's not a valid policy. So there's no reason to record this default value. It doesn't cause a problem, but is confusing to anyone reading the code. Remove it.
