> Renaming a table changes the location of the table to the default location of
> the database, followed by the table name. This means that if the default
> location of the database uses a different scheme/authority, an exception will
> get thrown attempting to move the data.
> Instead, the table's location should be made the default location of the
> database followed by the table name, but using the original location's scheme
> and authority.
> This only applies for managed tables, and there is already a check to ensure
> the new location doesn't already exist.
> This is analogous to what was done for partitions in HIVE-2875
