Hello! With this change it does not seem possible to change a table from
EXTERNAL_TABLE to MANAGED_TABLE using a DDL:
`ALTER TABLE t SET TBLPROPERTIES ('EXTERNAL'='FALSE')`
as it was made possible in
[HIVE-1329](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1329).
Is there an alternative? Otherwise the solution might just be to override
the tableType by the property when set. In other words:
- tableType=EXTERNAL_TABLE and EXTERNAL='FALSE' -> isTableExternal() = false
