When a user connects via spark-thrift server to execute SQL, it does not enable PPD with ORC. It ends up creating MetastoreRelation which does not have ORC PPD. Purpose of this JIRA is to convert MetastoreRelation to OrcRelation in HiveMetastoreCatalog, so that users can benefit from PPD even when connecting to spark-thrift server.
For e.g, Query "select count(1) from tpch_flat_orc_1000.lineitem where l_shipdate = '1990-04-18'" which is fired against spark-thrift-server or sqlContext would end up using "OrcRelation" to make use of PPD instead of MetastoreRelation.
