------------------------------------------
> Use the new "REFUSED" compaction state where it makes sense

> The
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.txn.compactor.Worker#findNextCompactionAndExecute
> method does several checks (The table/partition exists, is not sorted, there
> are enough files to compact, etc.) before it actually executes the compaction
> request. If the compaction request fails on any of these checks, it is put to
> "SUCCEEDED" state which is often misleading for users. SHOW COMPACTIONS will
> show these requests as succeeded without an error, while the table is not
> compacted at all.
> For these cases, the state should be "REFUSED" instead of "SUCCEEDED" among
> with the appropriate error message.
