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

We should also handle ColumnCountGetFilter.

> There are various usecases and filter types where evaluating the filter before version are handled either do not make sense, or make filter handling more complicated.
> Also see this comment in ScanQueryMatcher:
> {code}
>     /**
>      * Filters should be checked before checking column trackers. If we do
>      * otherwise, as was previously being done, ColumnTracker may increment its
>      * counter for even that KV which may be discarded later on by Filter. This
>      * would lead to incorrect results in certain cases.
>      */
> {code}
> So we had Filters after the column trackers (which do the version checking), and then moved it.
> Should be at the discretion of the Filter.
> Could either add a new method to FilterBase (maybe excludeVersions() or something). Or have a new Filter wrapper (like WhileMatchFilter), that should only be used as outmost filter and indicates the same (maybe ExcludeVersionsFilter).
> See latest comments on HBASE-5229 for motivation.
