The code looks good to me. However, I think we can avoid the work around
solution (de-serializing (with partition serde) and then serialize (with table
serde) again) for adapting the higher level table scan (`TableScanOperator` in
Shark), which have to providing a unique `ObjectInspector` for the downstream
Operators.
Not like `TableScanOperator`, `HiveTableScan` in `Spark-Hive` doesn't reply
on `ObjectInspector`,
and its output type is `GenericMutableRow`, I think we could make the
object conversion (from raw type to `Row` object) directly.
