Bugs: RANGER-2397
    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-2397


Repository: ranger


Description
-------

**Problem Statement:**
HIVE-18777 added Authorization interface to support information_schema 
integration with external authorization, but it causes the bug with Hive Plugin 
for Ranger. Specifically, it causes the following error while starting 
HiveServer2 with the Hive Plugin, and blocks HiveServer2 to start.

java.lang.AbstractMethodError: 
org.apache.ranger.authorization.hive.authorizer.RangerHiveAuthorizer.getHivePolicyProvider()Lorg/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/security/authorization/plugin/HivePolicyProvider

**Solution:(provided by Junseung Hwang in the Jira)** :
Hive already has an abstract class to prevent this kind of error, so the patch 
just makes RangerHiveAuthorizerBase to extend AbstractHiveAuthorizer instead of 
implementing HiveAuthorizer directly.
