[jira] [Created] (HBASE-12749) Tighten HFileLink api to enable non-snapshot other uses

--------------------------------------

             Summary: Tighten HFileLink api to enable non-snapshot other uses
                 Key: HBASE-12749
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12749
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: snapshots
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0, 1.1.0
            Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh
            Assignee: Jonathan Hsieh


In HBASE-12332 we'd like to use the FileLink's IO redirecting powers but want to be able to specify arbitrary alternate link paths and not be tied to the SnapshotFileLink file pattern (aka, table=region-hfile).  

To do this we need change the constructors and some internals so that it is more generic.  Along the way, we remove the FileStatus constructor arguments in favor of Path's and reduce the number of ways to create HFileLinks, and tighten up the scope privacy of many methods.
