Description
Fix confusion about connector name vs catalog name and generally improve the section for clarity.
Additional context and related issues
Need clarification a bit more.. also do we need to warn the user that this might take a while .. or very long depending on table size? Or is this essentially just rejigging metadata and therefore actually fast .. well actually. Even if that the case .. thats potentially a lot of metadata to get from the HMS and pump into the Iceberg metadata files... do we have any experience how long this can take .. for example for a 1GB, 100GB, or 1TB table?
Any idea here @ebyhr @findinpath @alexjo2144 @findepi
