### Search before asking - [X] I had searched in the [feature](https://github.com/apache/incubator-seatunnel/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3A%22Feature%22) and found no similar feature requirement. ### Description Currently, the way we parse `RowType` is inconsistent. These factories should be enabled to allow users to configure more easily and support more features; Below I briefly explain the factory: 1. CatalogFactory: a feature with the same target as the user-defined schema, used to obtain the structured information of the table; 2. DeserializationFormatFactory & SerializationFormatFactory: used to support kafka, file and other unstructured connectors to process data in various formats; 3. TableSourceFactory: It is used to support multi-table reading and metadata column features. It is an upper-level extension of source; 4. TableSinkFactory: The same level as TableSourceFactory, but there are currently no supported features; ### Usage Scenario 1. Provides a unified schema. 2. Support for metadata columns. 3. Support for CDC connector. 4. Support for format SPI. 5. Provide a list of options to the Web page. ### Related requirement unified schema： #2469 create table automaticly: #3271 metadata columns： #2915 #2960 visualization of options: #3273 ### Are you willing to submit a PR? - [x] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
