Make NN and DN handle in a intuitive way comma-separated configuration strings

                 Key: HDFS-455
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-455
             Project: HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: data-node, name-node
    Affects Versions: 0.20.1, 0.21.0
            Reporter: Michele (aka pirroh) Catasta
            Priority: Minor


The following configuration causes problems:
<property>
<name>dfs.data.dir</name>
<value>/mnt/hstore2/hdfs, /home/foo/dfs</value> 
</property>

The problem is that the space after the comma causes the second directory for 
storage to be " /home/foo/dfs" which is in a directory named <SPACE> which 
contains a sub-dir named "home" in the hadoop datanodes default directory. This 
will typically cause the user's home partition to fill, but will be very hard 
for the user to understand since a directory with a whitespace name is hard to 
understand.
