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

Can we put this in 0.90? seems like inaccurate counters are a bad problem!

> Doing investigation around some observed resetting counter behavior.
> An optimization was added to check memstore/snapshots first and then check storefiles if not all counters were found.  However it looks like this introduced a bug when columns for a given row/family in a single increment operation are spread across memstores and storefiles.
> The results from get operations on both memstores and storefiles are appended together but when processed are expected to be fully sorted.  This can lead to invalid results.
> Need to sort the combined result of memstores + storefiles.
