Add get_version() call to Thrift API
------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-2136
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2136
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Thrift API
Reporter: Carl Steinbach
Clients need to be able to determine the version of the HiveServer and
HiveMetastore.
Open questions:
* Should there be separate methods for determining the HiveServer and
HiveMetaStore versions?
* Should the return value be a string, or should we have separate integer
valued methods that return the major/minor/patch versions separately (the
latter would be easier for clients written in C).
