protocol binding to Hadoop 3.1 PathOutputCommitter mechanism

   Hi @steveloughran and others,
   I had a doubt on the behaviour of `PathOutputCommitProtocol`, which throws 
an exception when `dynamicPartitionOverwrite` is true. I am not clear why it 
should throw this exception? What would happen if this code is opened. I tried 
to decode the comment on the parameter, " dynamic partition overwrite is not 
supported, so that committers for stores which do not support rename will not 
get confused.", but I got bit confused. There are no renames in this complete 
idea. 
   Can you kindly elaborate this?
   As far as I understand( please correct me if I am wrong) , when 
DynamicOverwrite is set, the committer(Directory/partition) will delete the 
existing contents(in REPLACE mode). Which is exactly what is expected. 
   Thanks.
