------------------------------
This patch change the RDD key type to HiveKey after map/reduce functions have
been applied. Original input RDD key type remains BytesWritable.
> Use HiveKey instead of BytesWritable as key type of the pair RDD [Spark

> HiveKey should be used as the key type because it holds the hash code for
> partitioning. While BytesWritable serves partitioning well for simple cases,
> we have to use {{HiveKey.hashCode}} for more complicated ones, e.g. join,
> bucketed table, etc.
