Support index data maintenance on separate column family as well. #5

If we maintain index data on separate family as well instead of separate table, then we can avoid all admin operations like create,enable,disable,split on index table. We can achieve this with minimal changes to our code base. Then most of the region wise operations will be taken care by kernel only.

+1. Pros and cons can be listed out. That would help us get an better idea.
