---------------------------------------
Hi John,
If you scroll down in HiveParser.g, you will see
KW_UNION KW_DISTINCT? -> ^(TOK_UNIONDISTINCT)
This means, union, union distinct will both be treated as union distinct
> Support Union Distinct

> only supports union all. In this patch, we try to add this new feature by
> rewriting union distinct to union all followed by group by.
