   My concern with how we currently determine the writer implementation is that 
we select it at compile time, but it can later be overridden in `WriterBuilder`.
   
   I explored an alternative approach. Right now, the writer implementation 
depends on two factors:
   * Write operation
   * Copy-On-Write mode (IIUC, this PR calculates COW inside `WriterBuilder` 
using the statement operation)
   
   What if we add a new enum constant inside `Context.Operation` to merge the 
two?
   ```
     public enum Operation {UPDATE, DELETE, MERGE, IOW, OTHER, COW}
   ```
   And move this logic
   ```
       boolean isCOW = IcebergTableUtil.isCopyOnWriteMode(operation, 
table.properties()::getOrDefault);
   ```
   from `WriterBuilder` to `SemanticAnalyzer`
   ```
     private Context.Operation getWriteOperation(String destination, Table 
destinatonTable) {
       if (destinatonTable != null &&
           destinatonTable.getStorageHandler() != null &&
           destinatonTable.getStorageHandler().shouldOverwrite(destinatonTable, 
ctx.getOperation())) {
         return Context.Operation.COW;
       }
   
       return deleting(destination) ? Context.Operation.DELETE :
           updating(destination) ? Context.Operation.UPDATE : 
           merging(destination) ? Context.Operation.MERGE : 
Context.Operation.OTHER;
     }
   ```
   We can check whether the operation is `Operation.COW` in the `WriterBuilder` 
and in `HiveIcebergSerDe`.
   
   WDYT?
