> A public API in CellComparator which takes old style byte[], offset, length alone is not correct.  CellComparator supposed to compare cell(s).  At least one side param has to be a cell.. This is the agreement we discussed in HBASE-10800.  Still we could not remove the above one method because it was getting used from multiple places.  Now most of the usage is removed.  This jira aims at removing it fully and replace the usage with other APIs.
> Note: The CellComparator is added in 2.0 only so removing the public API is not creating any BC issue.
