> Valid table names are concatted with a '.' to a valid regions names is also a valid table name, and lead to the incorrect interpretation.
> {code}
> true hfile name constraints: [0-9]+(?:_SeqID_[0-9]+)?
> region name constraints    : [a-f0-9]{16}  (but we currently just use [a-f0-9]+.)
> table name constraints     : [a-zA-Z0-9_][a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*
> {code}
> Notice that the table name constraints completely covers all region name constraints and true hfile name constraints.   (a valid hfile name is a valid part of a table name, and a valid enc region name is a valid part of a table name.
> Currently the hfilelink filename convention is <hfile>-<region>-<table>.  Unfortunately, making a ref to this uses the name <hfile>-<region>-<table>.<parentregion> -- the contactnation of <table>.<parentregion> is a valid table name used to get interpreted as such.  The fix in HBASE-7339 requires a FileNotFoundException before going down the hfile link resolution path. 
> Regardless of what we do, we need to add some char invalid for table names to the hfilelink or reference filename convention.
> Suggestion: if we changed the order of the hfile-link name we could avoid some of the confusion -- <table>@<region>-<hfile>.<parentregion> (or some other separator char than '@') could be used to avoid handling on the initial filenotfoundexception but I think we'd still need a good chunk of the logic to handle opening half-storefile reader throw a hfilelink.
