Improve naming and README files for MetaStore upgrade scripts
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-2010
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2010
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation, Metastore
            Reporter: Carl Steinbach
            Assignee: Carl Steinbach
             Fix For: 0.7.0


The Hive metastore upgrade scripts currently use the naming convention 
upgrade-X.Y.Z.<dbname>.sql, with the intention of indicating that this file 
handles the upgrade to version X.Y.Z from the previous release. This has caused 
confusion with users who wonder if upgrade script actually handles the upgrade 
to X.Y.Z from all earlier versions of Hive.

I propose changing the naming convention to upgrade-A.B.C-to-X.Y.Z.<dbname>.sql 
in order to clarify the intended usage of these scripts.
