Thanks for the doc update!
I just left a few nits, otherwise LGTM

http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/25209/1/docs/topics/impala_paimon.xml
File docs/topics/impala_paimon.xml:

http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/25209/1/docs/topics/impala_paimon.xml@184
PS1, Line 184: Impala creates
             :           Parquet files
This text implies that Impala writes data files. We could say instead: "When the property is omitted, Impala does not set it and Paimon uses its default file format."


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/25209/1/docs/topics/impala_paimon.xml@332
PS1, Line 332: <codeph>ARRAY</codeph>, <codeph>MAP</codeph>, and
             :         <codeph>STRUCT</codeph> columns cannot be read. Virtual columns such as
             :         <codeph>INPUT__FILE__NAME</codeph> are not available.
We could clarify that an existing table with such columns loads fine. You can query its other columns, and only reading the complex column fails. Since IMPALA-15054, EXPAND_COMPLEX_TYPES defaults to true, so SELECT * on such a table fails too. The workaround is to list the columns or run SET EXPAND_COMPLEX_TYPES=false.


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/25209/1/docs/topics/impala_paimon.xml@337
PS1, Line 337:   </concept>
Isn't SHOW FILES implemented for Paimon tables? It isn't mentioned anywhere, either as supported or as a limitation. I suggest adding it here and to the list at L60–85.


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/25209/1/docs/topics/impala_paimon.xml@478
PS1, Line 478: is read as an Impala <codeph>TIMESTAMP</codeph>
AFAIK TIMESTAMP_LTZ values are converted to the query's local time zone, while a TIMESTAMP without a time zone is read as stored (UTC, no conversion). The text only says the value is "read as an Impala TIMESTAMP". Could you add the time-zone behavior?
