HIVE-3705 Enabling authorization from the metastore:

New HiveConf parameters:

hive.security.metastore.authorization.enabled : true/false determining whether 
or not to do authorization in the metastore
hive.security.metastore.authorization.manager : The class to load to do 
metastore-side authorization
hive.security.metastore.authenticator.manager : The class to load to do 
metastore-side authentication

If the first parameter isn't set, default behaviour of hive in both client-mode 
and metastore-mode is not affected, and this is disabled by default.

New Interface :

ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/security/authorization/HiveMetastoreAuthorizationProvider.java
 :
an extension of HiveAuthorizationProvider, except with one more function that 
allows the metastore to pass a HMSHandler to it

Modifications of existing classes :

Minor modifications :
ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/metadata/HiveUtils.java :
added ability to instantiate HiveAuth{orization,entication}Providers given 
HiveConf key to use
ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/session/SessionState.java :
changed to account for above

Major modifications :
ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/security/authorization/HiveAuthorizationProviderBase.java
 :
refactored to introduce a new HiveProxy that can proxy for either a hive object 
or a HMSHandler to perform necessary metadata operations
ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/security/authorization/DefaultHiveAuthorizationProvider.java
 :
refactored most of the functionality into a new class : 
BitSetCheckedAuthorizationProvider, which in turn is extended trivially by
DefaultHiveAuthorizationProvider and DefaultHiveMetastoreAuthorizationProvider 
which implement small glue functionality to make them
work from the hive client side and from the hive metastore respectively.

New Classes :

ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/security/authorization/BitSetCheckedAuthorizationProvider.java
 :
As discussed above.
ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/security/authorization/DefaultHiveMetastoreAuthorizationProvider.java
 :
As discussed above.
ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/security/authorization/AuthorizationPreEventListener.java
 :
An implementation of the Hive Metastore PreEventListener interface that kicks 
off the metastore-side authorization

> In an environment where multiple clients access a single metastore, and we 
> want to evolve hive security to a point where it's no longer simply 
> preventing users from shooting their own foot, we need to be able to 
> authorize metastore calls as well, instead of simply performing every 
> metastore api call that's made.
