Description

Currently, when we delete a partition in the work flow, the data persists in trash and does not get purged. This takes up namespaces.

 <pig>
            <job-tracker>${jobTracker}</job-tracker>
            <name-node>${oozieNameNode}</name-node>
            <prepare>
                <delete path="${hcat_uri}/${my_db}/${my_table}/date=${DATE}"/>
            </prepare>

Solution: User will pass on "skip-trash" option. Accordingly, Oozie will call appropriate hcat api.
