Root names of split table sets, e.g. intronEst for chr*_intronEst, were falling into the !hTableExists check in maybeGetHti and were mistakenly given hti with root name as table name.  Instead of assuming that any 'table' that does not exist as a table is bigWig, check for bigWig similarly to the way we check for other bigFile types and create a more accurate hti.  refs #19930
