Description

a JAPI compliane scan comparing 1.5.0 to 1.6.0-SNAPSHOT showed several incompatibilities in classes that probably never should have been in the public API

• client.admin.SecurityOperationsImpl
• client.admin.TableOperationsImpl
• client.admin.InstanceOparationsImpl
• client.mock.MockShell
• client.mock.MockTabletLocator

These changes are due to refactorings outside of the public API leaking into classes within the client that handle implementation.

Since we're likely to break compatibility in the release after 1.6.0, try not to do it this time. Make sure to deprecate all these things, just in case there's a 1.7.0
