Review Comment:
   I don't think this would improve the performance by any means. Consider 
dropping 10k partitions, each partition would have to access same number of 
tables in the underlying db to update the records, so it makes sense to batch 
them and implement with direct SQL. But for a single partition since it'll 
access same number of tables in the DB, I don't think it'll make sense to 
implement this feature.
   For example, [HIVE-26035](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-26035) 
(see the details in the jira) proved that implementing direct SQL actually 
improved the performance by running against benchmark tests.
   Similarly can you provide any evidence that this patch also has an edge by 
running those tests? (Probably you might have to add some tests(e.g: dropping 
10K+ single partitions).

> *Background:*
> [HIVE-6980|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6980] supports direct 
> sql for drop_partitions, we can reuse this huge improvement in drop_partition.
