[DISCUSSION] Complex Delimiter support as per Hive format

[ManishNalla]

Hi all,

I am working on Complex Datatype Map and want to propose a change in
delimiters which are currently being used. We are currently supporting '$'
and ':' as the two delimiters but this does not support TimeStamp to be a
type as its format also contains ':' .
So like Hive we can change the delimiters to '\001' and '\002' ASCII
characters for complex types. Please let me know your suggestions.

Regards,
Manish Nalla

We should modify the delimters as per hive. Also update the documentation as
per the change.

CSDK also used '\001' and '\002' for Array<string>, I think it's better and
more common for different scenario.

'\001' and '\002' are invisible character, string won't contains these
character usually. But sometimes string will contain $，# and other visible
character
