------------------------------------------
Summary: Newly created Iceberg tables are owned by the user of the
CatalogD process
Key: IMPALA-11429
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-11429
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Bug

impala-shell> create table ice_t (i int) stored as iceberg;
impala-shell> describe formatted ice_t;

| Owner: | impala |

The owner should be the user executing the query.
Unfortunately Iceberg doesn't allow us setting the owner of the table. It uses
the system-wide property "user.name" to set the owner:
[https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/51a9702367e22aff635ae05f2a313a19c3ba2fb8/hive-metastore/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/hive/HiveTableOperations.java#L347]
We might need Iceberg-side modifications as well to specify the owner.
Alternatively we could add an exter alter_table() RPC to change the owner.
