add HBaseAdmin.getTableDescriptor function
------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-639
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-639
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Michael Bieniosek
Currently, to get a HTableDescriptor for a particular table, I have to call
listTables() and then loop through the HTableDescriptor[]. It would be nice if
the API just had a function to give me a single HTableDescriptor, since I
already know the name of the table I'm interested in. Alternately, listTables
could return a map of String -> HTableDescriptor, keyed off table name.
