Description

Sentry + Hive error message now is:

FAILED: SemanticException No valid privileges
 User user2_1 does not have privileges for ALTERTABLE_PROPERTIES

Should add the required privileges in the exception message.

Updated error message would be:

FAILED: SemanticException No valid privileges
 User user2_1 does not have privileges for ALTERTABLE_PROPERTIES
 The required privileges: Server=server1->Db=db_1->Table=tb1->action=alter;
