Description

Tables created before IMPALA-3719 (Simplify CREATE TABLE Kudu statements) added a table property for the PK columns. That property is no longer used and an analysis exception is thrown if it is found to indicate that the user should only use the new syntax. We should still throw if the PK syntax isn't provided, but we shouldn't throw if the tbl property is also provided.
