   reconcilation of schemas work only if missing columns are in the end. 
   
   For eg:
   Commit1: 
   Schema: col1, col2, col3, col4
   
   Commit2: 
   Schema: col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6
   
   Commit3: old writer. 
   Schema: col1, col2, col3, col4
   Commit3 will succeed when you enable reconcile schema config. 
   
   In general, adding new colunmns at the end of existing schema works. it may 
break if you try to add new columns inbetween. for eg, in commit2, if your 
schema as col1, col5, col6, col2, col3, col4, your write or read may break.
