After the rebase the following assert in
AlterTableIT.testAddingColumnsToTablesAndViewsWithEncodedColumns was failing.
```
assertNull("A view should always have the column qualifier counter as
null", view.getEncodedCQCounter().getNextQualifier(DEFAULT_COLUMN_FAMILY));
```
This was because the rebase when you add a column or update a table
property, the new PTable is sent from the server to the client and this is
added to the client cache. Previously we just used to modify the PTable on the
client side.
The createFromProto code to deserialize the PTable was setting the
encodedColumnQualifierCounter to new EncodedCQCounter() (even if the table is
a view) which caused the assert to fail.
