drop table (or view) should issue warning if table doesn't exist
----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-1763
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1763
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Metastore
            Reporter: dan f
            Priority: Minor


drop table reports "OK" even if the table doesn't exist.  Better to report 
something like mysql's "Unknown table 'foo'" so that, e.g., unwanted tables 
(especially ones with names prone to typos) don't persist.
