This is continuation of #21533
There are two almost identical helpers in api/ -- validate_table(ks, cf) and get_uuid(ks, cf). Both check if the ks:cf table exists, throwing bad_param_exception if it doesn't. There's slight difference in their usage, namely -- callers of the latter one get the table_id found and make use of it, while the former helper is void and its callers need to re-search for the uuid again if the need (spoiler: they do).
This PR merges two helpers together, so there's less code to maintain. As a nice side effect, the existing validate_table() callers save one re-lookup of the ks:cf pair in database mappings.
Affected endpoints are validated by existing tests:
* column_family/{autocompation|tombstone_gc|compaction_strategy}, validated by the tests described in #21533
* /storage_service/{range_to_endpoint_map|describe_ring|ownership}, validated by nodetool tests
* /storage_service/tablets/{move|repair}, validated by tablets move and repair tests
