Review comment:
If we could extend out into BaseSpark3Actions this would be a good place
to diverge, since I think we could load the metadata table directly from the
catalog, and bypass the name resolution code. But we can't do that without
redoing the hierarchy or having the Rewrite Actions use reflection to determine
their "loadMetadataTable" Method
