> Hive has a Date function trunc(string date, string format) that returns date
> truncated to the unit specified by the format. Supported formats:
> MONTH/MON/MM, YEAR/YYYY/YY.
> Goal here is to extend support to QUARTER/Q.
> Example:
> SELECT trunc('2017-03-15', 'Q');
> '2017-01-01'
> SELECT trunc('2017-12-31', 'Q');
> '2017-10-01'
