Add an api to get the visible length of a DFSDataInputStream.
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-814
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-814
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: hdfs client
            Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE
            Assignee: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE
             Fix For: 0.21.0, 0.22.0


Hflush guarantees that the bytes written before are visible to the new readers.  However, there is no way to get the length of the visible bytes.  The visible length is useful in some applications like SequenceFile.
