Description

There are some scenes we can't drop table by hive catalog because of we execute error create table sql like "caeate table tableName". And then when we execute drop table sql "drop table tableName" will throw error "org.apache.flink.table.catalog.exceptions.CatalogException: Failed to get table schema from properties for generic table".
So, i think maybe we should remove the check when we drop table by third-party catalog and just drop table depend on the third-party catalog.
