Review Request: HIVE-2242: DDL Semantic Analyzer does not pass partial specification partitions to PreExecute hooks when dropping partitions

Review request for hive and Paul Yang.


Summary
-------

Currently, when dropping partitions, the DDL Semantic Analyzer only passes partitions that have a full specification to Pre Execution hooks. It should also include all matches from partial specifications.

E.g., suppose you have a table
create table test_table (a string) partitioned by (p1 string, p2 string);
alter table test_table add partition (p1=1, p2=1);
alter table test_table add partition (p1=1, p2=2);
alter table test_table add partition (p1=2, p2=2);

and you run 
alter table test_table drop partition(p1=1);
Pre-execution hooks will not be passed any of the partitions. The expected behavior is for pre-execution hooks to get the WriteEntity's with the partitions "p1=1/p2=1" and "p1=1/p2=2"


This addresses bug HIVE-2242.
