Change describe_keyspace and describe_keyspaces to return hashed arrays or 
hashed maps instead of numerically indexed arrays

                 Key: CASSANDRA-1383
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1383
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.7 beta 1
         Environment: CentOD 5.2
            Reporter: Arya Goudarzi


I noticed a recent change in the structure of data returned from 
describe_keyspaces and describe_keyspaces API calls. They now return all 
information associated with them in a numerically indexed arrays, vs before 
they used to return a hashmap with Keyspace/CF name as the key. The old method 
was useful because the developer could do lookups by names which is 
significantly faster. Now developer has to iterate through the entire KsDef 
object to detect if some Ks or CF exists. This is inefficient. I recommend the 
structure returned by the above two service calls to be hashed by the actual 
Ks/CF name.
