HBASE-12404 Task 5 from parent: Replace internal HTable constructor use with
HConnection#getTable (0.98, 0.99)

Replaced HTable under hbase-*/src/main/java. Skipped tests. Would take
till end of time to do all and some cases are cryptic. Also skipped
some mapreduce where HTable comes through in API. Can do both of
these stragglers in another issue.
Generally, if a utility class or standalone class, tried to pass in a
Connection rather than have the utility or standalone create its own
connection on each invocation; e.g. the Quota stuff. Where not possible,
noted where invocation comes from... if test or hbck, didn't worry about
it.
Some classes are just standalone and nothing to be done to avoid
a Connection setup per invocation (this is probably how it worked
in the new HTable...days anyways). Some classes are not used:
AggregationClient, FavoredNodes... we should just purge this stuff.
Doc on what short circuit connection does (I can just use it...
I thought it was just for short circuit but no, it switches dependent
on where you are connecting).
Changed HConnection to super Interface ClusterConnection where safe (
internal usage by private classes only).
Doc cleanup in example usage so we do new mode rather than the old
fashion.
Used java7 idiom that allows you avoid writing out finally to call close
on implementations of Closeable.
Added a RegistryFactory.. moved it out from being inner class.
Added a utility createGetClosestRowOrBeforeReverseScan method to Scan
to create a Scan that can ...
Renamed getShortCircuitConnection as getConnection – users don't need
to know what implementation does (that it can short-circuit RPC).
The old name gave pause. I was frightened to use it thinking it only
for short-circuit reading – that it would not do remote too.
