Add a simple way to create a blob table
---------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-637
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-637
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 0.3.0, 0.3.1
            Reporter: Zheng Shao


A blob table has a single column of type string. We put all data from the row into that column.

At present we are able to create blob table like this:

{code}
CREATE TABLE blobTable1 (row STRING)
  ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.lazy.LazySimpleSerDe'
  WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (
    'serialization.last.column.takes.rest'='true'
  )
  STORED AS TEXTFILE;

CREATE TABLE blobTable1 (row STRING)
  ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.lazy.LazySimpleSerDe'
  WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (
    'serialization.last.column.takes.rest'='true'
  )
  STORED AS SEQUENCEFILE;
{code}

We should add a simpler way to create such a table, since it's pretty popular.
