[HIVE-9274] STORED BY not setting input and output formats correctly

• Type: Bug

Description

When creating a new table using a storage handler via the STORED BY clause, for example using the HBaseStorageHandler, the input and output formats are set to null instead of the correct formats:

CREATE TABLE hbase_table_1(key int, value string)
STORED BY 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler'
WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ("hbase.columns.mapping" = ":key,cf1:val")
TBLPROPERTIES ("hbase.table.name" = "xyz");

describe formatted hbase_table_1:

1. Storage Information
   SerDe Library: org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseSerDe
   InputFormat: null
   OutputFormat: null

In older Hive versions, it would set the correct formats.

Could it be related to the changes in HIVE-5976?
