Description
**Describe the bug**
Fixed length character columns as part of primary keys are not handled correctly in Hive, Impala and Redshift
**Why is this bug happening**
DVT correctly handles fixed length character columns in many database as stated in [PR 1472](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/professional-services-data-validator/issues/1472).
The methods `raw_column_metadata` and `is_char_type_padded` are not yet implemented for Microsoft SQL Server, Hive, Impala and Redshift, therefore fixed length character columns that are primary keys are not trimmed.
