> HIVE-1010 added support for information_schema. However, the authorization
> information is not integrated when another project such as Ranger is used to
> do the authorization.
> We need to add API which Ranger/Sentry can implement, so that it is possible
> to retrieve authorization policy information from them.
> The existing API only supports checking if user has a permission on an object
> and can't be used to retrieve policy details.
