## Which issue does this PR close?
<!--
We generally require a GitHub issue to be filed for all bug fixes and
enhancements and this helps us generate change logs for our releases. You can
link an issue to this PR using the GitHub syntax. For example `Closes #123`
indicates that this PR will close issue #123.
-->
Closes #9465.
## Rationale for this change
<!--
Why are you proposing this change? If this is already explained clearly in
the issue then this section is not needed.
Explaining clearly why changes are proposed helps reviewers understand your
changes and offer better suggestions for fixes.
-->
Allow HiveQL syntax when creating external tables with partition columns
only defined inside the `PARTITION BY` clause, while maintaining original
syntax (backwards compatible).
## What changes are included in this PR?
<!--
There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here but it is
sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR.
-->
SQL Parser now parses:
```sql
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE test(trace_id varchar)
STORED AS parquet
PARTITIONED BY (partition varchar)
LOCATION '/tmp/test/';
```
as if it was:
```sql
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE test(trace_id varchar, partition varchar)
STORED AS parquet
PARTITIONED BY (partition)
LOCATION '/tmp/test/';
```
This means that queries re-defining columns in `PARTITIONED BY` are rejected
with `Schema error`
## Are these changes tested?
<!--
We typically require tests for all PRs in order to:
1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes
2. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code
If tests are not included in your PR, please explain why (for example, are
they covered by existing tests)?
-->
Positive case is tested, edge/negative cases not yet. Needs some slt tests.
## Are there any user-facing changes?
<!--
If there are user-facing changes then we may require documentation to be
updated before approving the PR.
-->
User is now able to use HiveQL syntax when creating partitioned external
tables.
<!--
If there are any breaking changes to public APIs, please add the `api
change` label.
