------------------------------

This patch change the RDD key type to HiveKey after map/reduce functions have been applied. Original input RDD key type remains BytesWritable.

> HiveKey should be used as the key type because it holds the hash code for partitioning. While BytesWritable serves partitioning well for simple cases, we have to use {{HiveKey.hashCode}} for more complicated ones, e.g. join, bucketed table, etc.
