Description

1) Clone into existing table name is printing snapshot name instead of table name.

hbase(main):004:0> clone_snapshot 'myTableSnapshot-122112','table'

ERROR: Table already exists: myTableSnapshot-122112!

The reason for this is we are printing first argument instead of exception message.

        if cause.kind_of?(org.apache.hadoop.hbase.TableExistsException) then
          raise "Table already exists: #{args.first}!"
        end

2) If we give wrong column family in put or delete. Expectation is to print actual column families in the table but instead throwing the exception.

hbase(main):002:0> put 't1','r','unkwown_cf','value'

The reason for this is server will not throw NoSuchColumnFamilyException directly, instead RetriesExhaustedWithDetailsException will be thrown.
