Change TableName.META_TABLE_NAME from a global static constant to a dynamically discovered value from ConnectionRegistry. Key changes: - Add ConnectionRegistry.getMetaTableName() method for dynamic discovery - Add MetaTableNameStore for persisting meta table name in master region - Update TableName to support dynamic meta table name - Update HMaster to integrate with MetaTableNameStore - Update all client and server code to use dynamic meta table name - Add protobuf changes for meta table name in Registry.proto Refactoring for the test classes to be handled separately.

nit: I see a mixture of using string concatenation as well as {} in the LOG.warn() method. IMO is should consistently use the {} convention.
