Igniters, 

Personally, I don't like the solution with database == schema name.

1. I think we should try to use the right abstractions. 
schema == database doesn't sound right for me.

Do you want to answer to all of our users something like that:

- "How I can change Ignite SQL schema?"
- "This is obvious, just use setDatabase("MY_SCHEMA_NAME")".

2. I think we restrict whole solution with that decision.
If Ignite will support multiple databases in the future we just don't have a 
place for it.

I think we should do the following:

        1. IgniteExternalCatalog should be able to return *ALL* tables within 
Ignite instance. 
        We shouldn't restrict tables list by schema by default.
        We should return tables with schema name - `schema.table`

        2. We should introduce `OPTION_SCHEMA` for a dataframe to specify a 
schema.

        There is an issue with the second step: We can't use schema name in 
`CREATE TABLE` clause.
        This is restriction of current Ignite SQL.

        I propose to make the following:

        1. For all write modes that requires the creation of table we should 
disallow usage of table outside of `SQL_PUBLIC`
        or usage of `OPTION_SCHEMA`. We should throw proper exception for this 
case.

        2. Create a ticket to support `CREATE TABLE` with custom schema name.

        3. After resolving ticket from step 2 we can add full support of custom 
schema to Spark integration.

        4. We should throw an exception if user try to use setDatabase.

Is that makes sense for you?
