Description

As Michael Stack noted in the code review https://github.com/apache/hbase/pull/954, the usage of registry in the client code is not super clear. The ask here is to rename it something that makes the context more clear.

Creating a separate jira because the patch touches a lots of files. I don't want to mix it with the patch for HBASE-23305.
