   Do we need to add `tableExists` to the generic `LakeCatalog` interface for 
this?
   
   The current validation seems specific to Paimon's `paimon.path` option. 
Adding a generic `LakeCatalog.tableExists(...)` makes all lake formats 
implement a new public contract, but Iceberg/Hudi/Lance currently just throw 
`UnsupportedOperationException`, so the interface contract is not really 
supported generically.
   
   Could we keep this validation inside the Paimon implementation instead? That 
would avoid expanding the generic lake catalog API for a Paimon-specific rule.
