In column_family.cc and storage_service.cc there exist a bunch of helpers that parse and/or validate ks/cf names, and different endpoints use different combinations of those, duplicating the functionality of each other and generating some mess. This PR cleans the endpoints from column_family.cc that parse and validate fully qualified table name (the '$ks:$cf' string).
A visible "improvement" is that `validate_table()` helper usage in the api/ directory is narrowed down to storage_service.cc file only (with the intent to remove that helper completely), and the aforementioned `for_tables_on_all_shards()` helper becomes shorter and tiny bit faster, because it doesn't perform some re-lookups of tables, that had been performed by validation sanity checks before it.
There's more to be done in those helpers, this PR wraps only one part of this mess.
Below is the list of endpoints this PR affects and the tests that validate the changes:
