Description
`org.apache.hive:hive-exec` bundles in some transitive dependencies (e.g. guava) without shading them. This causes classpath issues in the test framework as user is not able to depend on newer guava version. Instead we should use `org.apache.hive:hive-exec:core` jar which does not bundle transitive dependencies. This way, guava dependencies can be manipulated through Gradle dependency resolution if required.

Research direction
Locate the Gradle dependency declaration for the test framework and inspect how it currently resolves org.apache.hive:hive-exec. Change the dependency to the core jar, then verify that the framework no longer receives bundled transitive dependencies such as Guava and that dependency resolution can select the required Guava version.
