> This is the first step to clean `HiveClient` from `HiveSessionState`. In the metastore interaction, we always set fully qualified names when accessing/operating a table. That means, we always specify the database. Thus, it is not necessary to use `HiveClient` to change the active database in Hive metastore. 
> In `HiveSessionCatalog `, `setCurrentDatabase` is the only function that uses `HiveClient`. Thus, we can remove it after removing `setCurrentDatabase`
