Refactor HCatTableInfo, JobInfo and OutputJobInfo
-------------------------------------------------
Key: HCATALOG-64
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-64
Project: HCatalog
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Francis Liu
These classes and their roles has become convoluted. HCatTableInfo should be an
HCat abstraction of table and thus not have any job specific information and
should not contain different information depending on usage. *JobInfo classes
should contain job specific information (user provided, derived from metastore
info, etc). Since *JobInfo contains such information it should be the object
which is passed to HCatInputFormat.setInput and HCatInputFormat.setOutput. Also
JobInfo should be renamed to InputJobInfo for consistency and clarity. Also
there needs to be a way to pass implementation specific configuration
information down to the actual storage driver.
