Piggybank's Hive loaders should rely on Ivy rather than downloading Hive manually
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PIG-1816
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1816
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jakob Homan


Currently the Hive components in Piggybank download, extra, rename and copy the necessary Hive jars manually in Ant via the {{download-hive-deps}} target (incidentally, it's downloading 0.4, an ancient version). This plays havoc with IDEs that may be trying to load the Hive classes and resolve dependencies automatically through Hive, and is also fragile.  This component should be updated to use Ivy to resolve the Hive dependency.
