Nadav Har'El 1aacfdf460 REST API: stop using deprecated, buggy, path parameter
The API req->param["name"] to access parameters in the path part of the
URL was buggy - it forgot to do URL decoding and the result of our use
of it in Scylla was bugs like #5883 - where special characters in certain
REST API requests got botched up (encoded by the client, then not
decoded by the server).

The solution is to replace all uses of req->param["name"] by the new
req->get_path_param("name"), which does the decoding correctly.

Unfortunately we needed to change 104 (!) callers in this patch, but the
transformation is mostly mechanical and there is no functional changes in
this patch. Another set of changes was to bring req, not req->param, to
a few functions that want to get the path param.

This patch avoids the numerous deprecation warnings we had before, and
more importantly, it fixes #5883.
