[HIVE-5434] Creating a new HiveConnection does not handle the case when properties are supplied separately from connection string

Description

While creating a new connection: HiveConnection(String uri, Properties info), the Properties hash can also be used to specify connection properties. When username / password is specified in Properties, the current logic uses that, w/o checking the values in connection string. However, a comment in the code says it should not be like that:
// extract user/password from JDBC connection properties if its not supplied in the connection URL
Also, it is possible for Properties to contain other keys and they should be handled properly.
