private static TableName getTableName(ByteBuffer buffer) {
    return TableName.valueOf(getBytes(buffer));
  }
Note: this internal interface is slightly different from public APIs in regard to handling of
the qualifier. Here we differ from the public Java API in that null != byte[0]. Rather, we
respect qual == null as a request for the entire column family. The caller (
{@link #getVerTs(ByteBuffer, ByteBuffer, ByteBuffer, long, int, Map)}) interface IS consistent
in that the column is parse like normal.
