Add JSON output to the hive ddl commands
----------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-2822
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2822
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Chris Dean


The goal is to have an option to produce JSON output of the DDL commands that 
is easily machine parseable.

For example, "desc my_table" currently gives

    id    bigint
    user  string

and we want to allow a json output:

    {
      "columns": [
        {"name": "id", "type": "bigint"},
        {"name": "user", "type": "string"}
      ]
    }
