Description

At present, get_all_tables  method in HMSHandler would not get table from remote database. However, other component like presto and some jobs we developed have used this api instead of get_tables which could retrieve all tables both native database and remote database .

// get_all_tables only can get tables from native database
public List<String> get_all_tables(final String dbname) throws MetaException {

// get_tables can get tables from both native and remote database
public List<String> get_tables(final String dbname, final String pattern)

I think we shoud fix get_all_tables to make it retrive tables from remote database.
