Include hive-default.xml and hive-log4j.properties in hive-common JAR

                 Key: HIVE-1530
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1530
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Configuration
            Reporter: Carl Steinbach


hive-common-*.jar should include hive-default.xml and hive-log4j.properties,
and similarly hive-exec-*.jar should include hive-exec-log4j.properties. The
hive-default.xml file that currently sits in the conf/ directory should be 
removed.

Motivations for this change:
* We explicitly tell users that they should never modify hive-default.xml yet 
give them the opportunity to do so by placing the file in the conf dir.
* Many users are familiar with the Hadoop configuration mechanism that does not 
require *-default.xml files to be present in the HADOOP_CONF_DIR, and assume 
that the same is true for HIVE_CONF_DIR.
