… the underlying HBase table ### What changes were proposed in this pull request? Introduce a CTLT flag to check if a table was created using CTLT, the same way it's done for CTAS. ### Why are the changes needed? In the case of HBase tables, if you use a CTLT command, your new table will point to the same underlying HBase table as your original table. In case of a failure, currently the HBaseMetaHook rollback logic deletes the HBase table, leading to data loss. However, using the CTLT flag, we can stop that from doing so. ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change? No ### How was this patch tested?
