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

Doc ping for [~pxiong]:  Should the attached documentation be put in the wiki?  (See previous comment.)

If so, this jira needs a TODOC14 label.

> In a PARTITIONED table, there are many partitions. For example, 
> create table if not exists loc_orc (
>   state string,
>   locid int,
>   zip bigint
> ) partitioned by(year string) stored as orc;
> We assume there are 4 partitions, partition(year='2000'), partition(year='2001'), partition(year='2002') and partition(year='2003').
> We can use the following command to compute statistics for columns state,locid of partition(year='2001')
> analyze table loc_orc partition(year='2001') compute statistics for columns state,locid;
> We need to know the “aggregated” column status for the whole table loc_orc. However, we may not have the column status for some partitions, e.g., partition(year='2002') and also we may not have the column status for some columns, e.g., zip bigint for partition(year='2001')
> We propose a method to extrapolate the missing column status for the partitions.
