> Observed by @felixcheung , in `SparkSession`.`Catalog` APIs, we have 
> different conventions/rules for table/function identifiers/names. Most APIs 
> accept the qualified name (i.e., `databaseName`.`tableName` or 
> `databaseName`.`functionName`). However, the following five APIs do not 
> accept it.  
> - def listColumns(tableName: String): Dataset[Column]
> - def getTable(tableName: String): Table 
> - def getFunction(functionName: String): Function
> - def tableExists(tableName: String): Boolean
> - def functionExists(functionName: String): Boolean
> It is desirable to make them more consistent with the other Catalog APIs, 
> updates the function/API comments and adds the `@params` to clarify the 
> inputs we allow.
