…ange in partition location ### What changes were proposed in this pull request? This change skips the DFS_URI authorization if there is no change in the PARTITION location in the ALTER_PARTITION event. If the old partition and new partition Uri are the same or the old partition location is empty, then skip adding DFS_URI for authorization. ### Why are the changes needed? The LOAD DATA command invokes the ALTER_PARTITION event to update stats for the newly loaded partition. ALTER_PARTITION authorizes DFS_URI for the partition location even when the partition locations do not change. This requires the Hadoop SQL policy for DFS_URI to be defined for the partition location for LOAD DATA commands. ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change? Yes, after this change, users will no longer need the DFS_URI policy for target table partition location. ### Is the change a dependency upgrade? No ### How was this patch tested?
