Joe McDonnell 5071f54a4c IMPALA-12825: Install thrift into the impala-python virtualenv
impala-python currently gets its Thrift from the toolchain
by adding the appropriate Thrift toolchain directories to
the PYTHONPATH. This is a problem when switching to Python 3,
because the toolchain Thrift was built with Python 2 and
this can produce complicated bugs. In general, it is also
not a good idea to get Python dependencies from the toolchain.

This switches to installing Thrift into the impala-python
virtualenv, which lets the different Python versions have
their own copy of compiled files.

To install new packages:

1) Add your package to deps/requirements.txt, or deps/compiled-requirements.txt if the
   the package needs a C/C++ compiler to build . You should specify the version number
   using the "foo == x.y.z" notation so future upgrades can be done automatically.
2) Run deps/download_requirements, it will download the package to the deps dir.
3) Run the "impala-python" command, this should detect that requirements.txt changed and
   automatically rebuild the virtualenv.
4) Now in the python prompt, you should be able to import the new module.

To upgrade a package:

1) Edit deps/requirement.txt to use the version you need.
2) Go to step 2 above.
