   In the newer versions of Hive, there is a table property `external.table.purge` which if true, the external table data will be deleted upon dropping the table, just like for managed tables. For Iceberg tables created by the Hive engine, we automatically append this property `external.table.purge=true` (and set the gc.enabled to true as well accordingly).
