> Error pushing predicates to HBase storage handler

> Discovered while working on HIVE-13693.
> There is an error on the predicates that we can push to HBaseStorageHandler.
> In particular, range predicates of the shape {{(bounded, open)}} and {{(open,
> bounded)}} over long or int columns get pushed and return wrong results.
> The problem has to do with the storage order for keys in HBase. Keys are
> sorted lexicographically. Since the byte representation of negative values
> comes after the positive values, open range predicates need special handling
> that we do not have right now.
> Thus, for instance, when we push the predicate {{key > 2}}, we return all
> records with column _key_ greater than 2, plus the records with negative
> values for the column _key_. This problem does not get exposed if a filter is
> kept in the Hive operator tree, but we should not assume the latest.
> This fix avoids pushing this kind of predicates to the storage handler,
> returning them in the _residual_ part of the predicate that cannot be pushed.
> In the future, special handling might be added to support this kind of
> predicates.
