* Factory for getting current valid instance of IMetaStoreClient
* Metastore client cannot be cached in authorization interface as that
* can get invalidated between the calls with the logic in Hive class.
* The standard way of getting metastore client object is through Hive.get().getMSC().
* But Hive class is not a public interface, so this factory helps in hiding Hive
* class from the authorization interface users.
