   We are working on support for Iceberg in dbt-spark. Since Iceberg does not support `show tables extended` we fall back to `show table` and many `describe table` to determine if a given table is an iceberg table or not.
   
   Normally (for Hudi and Delta) dbt-spark uses the `show tables extended` and parses the information from the `information` column to determine if it's dealing with a Hudi or Delta table.
   
   Iterating the tables and running `describe table` can get quite slow when there are hundreds of tables in a schema.
   
   It would be much better if Iceberg also supported `show tables extended`
