Hive should use NullOutputFormat for hadoop jobs
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-1355
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1355
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Query Processor
            Reporter: Joydeep Sen Sarma


see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1802

hive doesn't depend on hadoop job output folder. it produces output exclusively 
via side effect folders. we should use an outputformat that can request hadoop 
skip cleanup/setup. this could be nulloutputformat (unless there are any 
objections in hadoop to changing nulloutputformat behavior).

as a small side effect, it also avoids some totally unnecessary hdfs file 
creates and deletes in hdfs.
