Alex Behm c908ba1b7e IMPALA-1136: Support loading Avro tables without an explicit Avro schema
Hive allows creating Avro tables without an explicit Avro schema since 0.14.0.
For such tables, the Avro schema is inferred from the column definitions,
and not stored in the metadata at all (no Avro schema literal or Avro schema file).

This patch adds support for loading the metadata of such tables, although Impala
currently cannot create such tables (expect a follow-on patch).
