Support remote clients via Java API
-----------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-535
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-535
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: T Jake Luciani


Cassandra should support Java based clients without requiring the overhead of 
thrift serialization.

To support this, a java client should be able to join the gossip pool but 
provide no tokens of its own (so it accepts no writes).

The way this can be done is add a new startup routine to StorageService called 
startGossip() that would only initialize itself enough to get access to gossip.
I don't think its quite this simple though since cassandra code assumes there 
is at least one local token in places.

Also,  all StorageProxy methods used for thrift service should be made public 
StorageProxy.getKeyRange() is not public.
