Kerberos support

[LuisMoralesAlonso]

Does this client works ith Kerberos authentication i activated in Hive Metastore Service?

This worked for me (overriding the internal method that provides the tprotocol), provided I'm already performed a kinit:

class KerberosHiveMetastoreClient(HiveMetastoreClient):
    @staticmethod
    def _init_protocol(host: str, port: int) -> TBinaryProtocol:
        transport = TSocket.TSocket(host, int(port))
        transport = TTransport.TSaslClientTransport(transport, host=host, service="hive")
        transport = TTransport.TBufferedTransport(transport)
        return TBinaryProtocol.TBinaryProtocol(transport)
