   it looks like the columns definitions are required. Do we want to make those 
optional (and default to inferece if columns defs are missing) or add an extra 
keyword to require inference. (something like `CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE WITH 
INFERED COLUMNS STORED .....`) 
   
   Also if we want are inferring the schema then the API currently needs to 
read a set of records to actually do the inference. Do we want to control the 
number of rows read (default is to read the entire file) ?
