Description

After HIVE-5260 introduced the HivePassthroughOutputFormat, there needs to be unit/e2e tests to find a HBase table created using Hive is able to read and write data.

A few bugs were also discovered HIVE-5515, HIVE-5431 and HIVE-5680 was discovered and the current unit tests in HBase Storage Handler did not cover this.

Currently we are using an actual set up or a VM image to test if the patch works.
