Description
Before ORC 1.5.3, `orc.dictionary.key.threshold` and `hive.exec.orc.dictionary.key.size.threshold` is applied for all columns. This is a big huddle to enable dictionary encoding.
From ORC 1.5.3, `orc.column.encoding.direct` is added to enforce direct encoding selectively in a column-wise manner. This issue aims to add that feature by upgrading ORC from 1.5.2 to 1.5.3.
The followings are the patches in ORC 1.5.3 and this feature is the only one related to Spark directly.
ORC-406: ORC: Char(n) and Varchar(n) writers truncate to n bytes & corrupts multi-byte data (gopalv)

ORC-405. Remove calcite as a dependency from the benchmarks.

ORC-384: [C++] fix memory leak when loading non-ORC files
ORC-391: [c++] parseType does not accept underscore in the field name
ORC-397. Allow selective disabling of dictionary encoding. Original patch was by Mithun Radhakrishnan.
