----------------------------------
[~ashutoshc]
I fixed the interface to more friendlier name (I don't think the implementation
will be hard). Also added the FSOp::closeOp() to invoke the new interface.
| Not sure if there is a usecase for these apis on writer. Is there any?
Writer interfaces will be used to populate SerDeStats object which will be
returned by the writer implementing StatsProvidingRecordWriter. Apart from
these I don't see any other use case.
> Extend record writer and ORC reader/writer interfaces to provide statistics

> The current implementation for computing statistics (number of rows and raw
> data size) happens for every single row processed. The processOp() method in
> FileSinkOperator gets raw data size for each row from the serde and
> accumulates the size in hashmap while counting the number of rows. This
> accumulated statistics is then published to metastore.
> In case of ORC, ORC already stores enough statistics internally which can be
> made use of when publishing the stats to metastore. This will avoid the
> duplication of work that is happening in the processOp(). Also getting the
> statistics directly from ORC is very cheap (can directly read from the file
> footer).
