The LOAD section populates the text version of the table 
(functional.table_with_header_2). In this case, a csv file where the first line 
is column names. The DEPENDENT_LOAD populates other encodings. This table is 
very hacky. The only encoding other than text is gzip encoded text (the file 
that determines which formats apply for which tables is 
testdata/datasets/functional/schema_constraints.csv). We want to preserve the 
fact that the first line is column names. I don't think Hive would preserve 
this if we were to create a gzip table and do an "insert as select * from 
table_with_header_2". So, we load a gzip compressed version of the same file to 
populate functional_gzip.table_with_header_2. This only works because the only 
non-text format is gzip compressed text.
