What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Why are the changes needed?
When Hive types and database (DB) column types are different there is an implicit type conversion that must be done. The JdbcRecordIterator drives the type conversion, and the way we extract values from the ResultSet largely determines the result. In order to perform the conversion the iterator must use the Hive DDL types and not the database DDL types obtained from the result set.
Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?
Yes, as explained above.
Is the change a dependency upgrade?
No
