What happened to the test that uses hive_index? Is it disabled for Hive 3?

PS3, Line 17: - adds the ability to specify version restrictions for tables to 
load.
            :   The restrictions use the Python "requirements.txt" syntax. This 
new
            :   functionality is used to skip creating a hive "INDEX" table on 
Hive 3,
            :   where this functionality has been removed.
I have mixed feelings about something this flexible. For dataload, we usually 
know that some test is going to use this table. Any flexibility we introduce in 
what gets loaded on particular versions requires equivalent changes to tests. 
If we aren't careful, we would end up with mismatches between dataload and 
tests, and flexibility makes the system harder to reason about (and harder to 
test the combinations).

It could be that we add this and use it once for Hive 3, which lines up with 
USE_CDP_HIVE, and then never use it again. Then everything is fine. But if we 
use it for other things beyond Hive, I think it gets more error prone.

An alternative is to tie this specifically to USE_CDP_HIVE (or reintroduce a 
MINICLUSTER_PROFILE). With a fixed set of configurations, we just run tests on 
those configurations and everything naturally stays valid.
