> EventProcessor will ignore trivial ALTER_TABLE events that only modify tblproperties like "transient_lastDdlTime", "totalSize", "numFilesErasureCoded", and "numFiles" (IMPALA-8579). For other kinds of non-rename ALTER_TABLE events, it will trigger a full refresh on the table, which is expensive when there are tens of thousands of partitions.
> We can actually skip reloading file metadata for some ALTER_TABLE events, e.g. events that
>  * changing table comment
>  * adding/dropping columns
>  * changing column definition (name/type/comment)
>  * changing ownership
>  * setting customized tblproperties
