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

First patch provides support for insert statements without column references 
such as:
{code:sql}
insert into t2 values (1,2,3,4);
{code}

Basically during metadata gathering phase if partition specification isn't 
provided in query but target table has one it is auto-generated. For now I am 
trying to run ptests to get an idea if I am on right path with this solution.

> Following works:
> {code}
> create table t1 (a int, b int, c int);
> create table t2 (a int, b int, c int) partitioned by (d int);
> insert into t1 values (1,2,3);
> insert into t1 (c, b, a) values (1,2,3);
> insert into t1 (a,b) values (1,2);
> {code}
> For partitioned tables it should work similarly but doesn't.  All of 
> following fails:
> {code}
> insert into t2 values (1,2,3,4);
> insert into t2 (a, b, c, d) values (1,2,3,4);
> insert into t2 (c,d) values (1,2);
> insert into t2 (a,b) values (1,2);
> {code}
> All of above should work. Also note following works:
> {code}
> insert into t2 partition(d)  values (1,2,3,4);
> insert into t2 partition(d=4)  values (1,2,3);
> {code}
