Description

Release note update:

Starting from 2.0.0, Spark SQL handles views natively by default. When defining a view, now Spark SQL canonicalizes view definition by generating a canonical SQL statement from the parsed logical query plan, and then stores it into the catalog. If you hit any problems, you may try to turn off native view by setting spark.sql.nativeView to false.
