[SPARK-14506] [SQL] HiveClientImpl's toHiveTable misses a table property
for external tables
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
For an external table's metadata (in Hive's representation), its table type
needs to be EXTERNAL_TABLE. Also, there needs to be a field called EXTERNAL set
in the table property with a value of TRUE (for a MANAGED_TABLE it will be
FALSE). HiveClientImpl's toHiveTable misses to set this table property.
## How was this patch tested?
Added a new test.
