> HIVE should allow custom converting from HivePrivilegeObjectDesc to privilegeObject for different authorizers:
> There is a case in Apache Sentry: Sentry support uri and server level privilege, but in hive side, it uses {{AuthorizationUtils.getHivePrivilegeObject(privSubjectDesc)}} to do the converting, and the code in {{getHivePrivilegeObject()}} only handle the scenes for table and database 
> {noformat}
> privSubjectDesc.getTable() ? HivePrivilegeObjectType.TABLE_OR_VIEW :
>         HivePrivilegeObjectType.DATABASE;
> {noformat}
> A solution is move this method to {{HiveAuthorizer}}, so that a custom Authorizer could enhance it.
