**Histogram statistics**
Currently doris collects statistics, but no histogram data, and by default the optimizer assumes that the different values of the columns are evenly distributed. This calculation can be problematic when the data distribution is skewed. So this pr implements the collection of histogram statistics.
For columns containing data skew columns (columns with unevenly distributed data in the column), histogram statistics enable the optimizer to generate more accurate estimates of cardinality for filtering or join predicates involving these columns, resulting in a more precise execution plan.
The optimization of the execution plan by histogram is mainly in two aspects: the selection of where condition and the selection of join order. The selection principle of the where condition is relatively simple: the histogram is used to calculate the selection rate of each predicate, and the filter with higher selection rate is preferred.
The selection of join order is based on the estimation of the number of rows in the join result. In the case of uneven data distribution in the join condition columns, histogram can greatly improve the accuracy of the prediction of the number of rows in the join result. At the same time, if the number of rows of a bucket in one of the columns is 0, you can mark it and directly skip the bucket in the subsequent join process to improve efficiency.

Histogram statistics are mainly collected by the histogram aggregation function, which is used as follows:
**Syntax**
```SQL
histogram(expr)
```
> The histogram function is used to describe the distribution of the data. It uses an "equal height" bucking strategy, and divides the data into buckets according to the value of the data. It describes each bucket with some simple data, such as the number of values that fall in the bucket. It is mainly used by the optimizer to estimate the range query.
**example**
```
MySQL [test]> select histogram(login_time) from dev_table;
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| histogram(`login_time`) |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| {"bucket_size":5,"buckets":[{"lower":"2022-09-21 17:30:29","upper":"2022-09-21 22:30:29","count":9,"pre_sum":0,"ndv":1},...]}|

TODO:
- histogram func supports parameter and sample statistics (It's got another pr)
- use histogram statistics
- add p0 regression
The segment group is useless in current codebase, remove all the related code inside Doris. As for the related protobuf code, use reserved flag to prevent any future user from using that field.
Add one metric to detect the publish txn num per db. User can get the relative speed of the txns processing per db using this metric and doris_fe_txn_num.
At present, there are multiple user interface to access hdfs and s3.
Each interface has its own configuration and is different, which causes confusion for users.
Create resource already supports remote storage resources and resource permission management,
but only `spark`/`odbc_catalog` are in use.
Cloud storage resources need to be created and managed uniformly through create resource.
This PR contains the following changes:
1. Add `s3`, `hdfs` and `hms` resource, and each resource contains it's own configuration items, and delete configuration items scattered in other classes.
2. Use `resource` to create `storage` tools, and use `storage` tools to access the remote file system.
When a user has multiple catalogs and switch several times, he may forget which catalog is using. So I add a iscurrent column in show catalogs result for help.
mysql> show catalogs;
+-----------+-------------+----------+-----------+
| CatalogId | CatalogName | Type | IsCurrent |
