   - In Spark 3.2, the output schema of `SHOW TBLPROPERTIES` becomes `key: 
string, value: string` whether you specify the table property key or not. In 
Spark 3.1 and earlier, the output schema of `SHOW TBLPROPERTIES` is `value: 
string` when you specify the table property key. To restore the old schema with 
the builtin catalog, you can set `spark.sql.legacy.keepCommandOutputSchema` to 
`true`.
 
+  - In Spark 3.2, we support a typed literal for a partition constant value in 
a partition spec clause. For example, a right-side constant value in `PARTITION 
(dt = date'2020-01-01')` is parsed as a date-typed literal in the partition 
spec. In Spark 3.1 and earlier, the partition value will be treated as string 
value `date '2020-01-01'` and it's a illegal date type string value and will be 
converted to `__HIVE_DEFAULT_PARTITION__`.

Review comment:
       ```
   In Spark 3.2, we support typed literals in the partition spec of INSERT and 
ADD/DROP/RENAME PARTITION.
   For example, `ADD PARTITION(dt = date'2020-01-01')` adds a partition with 
date value `2020-01-01`.
   In Spark 3.1 and earlier, the partition value will be parsed as string value 
`date '2020-01-01', which is
   an illegal date value and we add a partition with null value at the end.
   ```
