HUE-7738 [editor] Add function listing in autocomplete API

This is a first pass before v1. See the documentation for usage.

Note:

  • only Hive can provide detailed function info
  • by default Hive only provides function names

Still need to add:

Both:

  • add other fields when possible, e.g. return type, signature, binary type, is persistent
  • show aggregate functions;
  • show analytic functions;

Hive:

  • DESCRIBE FUNCTION EXTENDED trunc

Impala

  • include _impala_builtins per default
  • include the active database

Other SQL

  • TODO: either errors or try to return columns
  • MySql e.g. show function status (or better check with SqlAlchemy)
