------------------------------------------

[~blerer]  - thanks for taking the time to review. (y) Addressed & pushed the 
changes. Also, updated PR with my comments. Please take a look. 
[~e.dimitrova] - thank you for running CI. :)  please review and would wait for 
your review comments. I see some failures on CI and maybe those are related to 
the changes. Would be great if you could share some info on those as well. 
Once, I address the review comments, I was thinking of rebasing with 
_cassandra-4.0_ branch, squashing commits and force-push.

> It would make sense to add support for {{IF EXISTS}} and {{IF NOT EXISTS}} in 
> the different {{ALTER}} statements. 
> For example:
> * {{ALTER TABLE IF EXISTS myTable ...}}
> * {{ALTER TABLE myTable ADD IF NOT EXISTS ...}}
> * {{ALTER TABLE myTable DROP IF EXISTS ...}}
> * {{ALTER TYPE IF EXISTS myType ...}}
> * {{ALTER TYPE myType ADD IF NOT EXISTS ...}}
> +Additional info for newcomers:+
> In order to implement this change you will need to change the {{Parser.g}} 
> ANTLR file located in the src/antlr directory and the java classes 
> corresponding to the different alter statements located in the 
> {{org.apache.cassandra.cql3.statements.schema}} package. You can look at the 
> CreateTableStatement class to see how it was done there.
> The unit test for the CQL logic are located under 
> {{org.apache.cassandra.cql3.validation}}
