---------------------------------------

+1. Patch looks good to me.

Are big endian encoded float/double byte-comparable?

> The HBase Bytes utility class encodes numeric types (int, long, float, double) as Big Endian. This utility class is used by many HBase applications. For example, data loaded into HBase using the Pig HBase storage and the Binary caster.
> We already have Big Endian functions for int and bigint. We just need to include them for float/double as well.
