Philip Zeyliger 77e010ae4e IMPALA-6070: Parallel compute_table_stats.py
Uses a thread pool to issue many compute stats commands in parallel to
Impala, rather than doing it serially. Where it was obvious, I combined
multiple stats commands into fewer, to reduce the number
of "show databses" and serialized "show tables" commands.

This speeds up the compute stats step in data loading significantly. My
measurements for testdata/bin/compute-table-stats.sh running before and
after this change, with the Impala daemons restarted (cold) or not
restarted (warm) on an 8-core, 32GB RAM machine were:

old, cold: 7m44s
new, cold: 1m42s

old, warm: 1m23s
new, warm:   48s

The data load in the full test build behaves in a cold fashion. It's
typical for https://jenkins.impala.io/job/ubuntu-16.04-from-scratch/ to
run this compute stats step for 9 or 10 minutes. With this change, this
will come down to about 2 minutes.
