1301926 - deprecate and delete hbase code

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Socorro :: General, task)

Description

[Lonnen :lonnen]

We stopped using hbase internally nearly two years ago, we have not updated it since, no one from the community has stepped in to maintain the modules, and we're not running all the tests.

I think it's time to drop it from the repo. Outside installs can recover it from history or maintain drivers as an independent library.

fixes bug 1301926 (#3463)

Removes all direct references to hbase, hb and happybase modules. This
deletes adapters, classes, removes references, supporting libraries, and
simply alters docs to reference other implementations.

remove some second order hbase code and documentation

remove references to the top-level analysis folder, which was only
supporting hbase, pig, and other unused tech. This is distinct from
the socorro/analysis folder that is actively used still.

This removes a curious namespace hack in the middleware_app.py that
proxies the hbase namespace to boto.
