------------------------------------------
> Database should have a unique id

> Key: HIVE-23785

> HIVE-20556 introduced a id field to the Table object. This is a useful
> information since a table which is dropped and recreated with the same name
> will have a different Id. If a HMS client is caching such table object, it
> can be used to determine if the table which is present on the client-side
> matches with the one in the HMS.
> We can expand this idea to other HMS objects like Database, Catalogs and
> Partitions and add a new id field.
