Description

Currently Impala only shows owner information when using DESCRIBE DATABASE EXTENDED <db> for databases created outside Impala. When a database is created inside Impala, the owner information is never set. For table creation, Impala always sets the owner information which can be shown by using DESCRIBE EXTENDED <tbl>. To make the behavior consistent, we need to set the owner information on database creation.
