This PR aims to support `INSERT INTO/OVERWRITE TABLE tableName` and `CREATE TABLE tableName AS SELECT` for the data source API (partitioned tables are not supported).
In this PR, I am also adding the support of `IF NOT EXISTS` for our ddl parser. The current semantic of `IF NOT EXISTS` is explained as follows.
* For a `CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE` statement, it does not `IF NOT EXISTS` for now.
* For a `CREATE TABLE` statement (we are creating a metastore table), if there is an existing table having the same name ...
* when `IF NOT EXISTS` clause is used, we will do nothing.
* when `IF NOT EXISTS` clause is not used, the user will see an exception saying the table already exists.
TODOs:
- [x] CTAS support
- [x] Programmatic APIs
- [ ] Python API (another PR)
- [x] More unit tests
- [ ] Documents (another PR)
