-------------------------------------

[~jinchul] Will this make it to 3.1?

> from_unixtime cannot include literal H - incompatible with hive

> I need to format a date as 2017-04-20H18.  No amount of backslashes or ticks 
> will get this done.
> In hive, it looks like:
> {code}
> hive> select from_unixtime(1492677561,'yyyy-MM-dd\'H\'HH');
> OK
> _c0
> 2017-04-20H08
> {code}
> In impala, the same query returns the wrong thing.  Instead of a literal H, 
> it gives me '8' (because the hour happens to be 8).
> {code}
> [atl1c1mgr-vip.vldb-bo.secureworks.net:21001] > select 
> from_unixtime(1492677561,'yyyy-MM-dd\'H\'HH');
> Query: select from_unixtime(1492677561,'yyyy-MM-dd\'H\'HH')
> +------------------------------------------------+
> | from_unixtime(1492677561, 'yyyy-mm-dd\'h\'hh') |
> +------------------------------------------------+
> | 2017-04-20'8'08                                |
> +------------------------------------------------+
> Fetched 1 row(s) in 0.05s
> {code}
> from_unixtime should support literals.  My preference would be that it uses 
> the same syntax as hive to achieve this.
