Review Comment:
   the datafusion docs provide a link to a reference implementation by 
[delta-rs](https://github.com/delta-io/delta-rs/blob/951436ecec476ce65b5ed3b58b50fb0846ca7b91/crates/deltalake-core/src/data_catalog/unity/datafusion.rs#L21),
 that uses a DashMap as well. 
   
   My understanding based on the 
[docs](https://docs.rs/datafusion/latest/datafusion/catalog/trait.CatalogProvider.html#implementing-remote-catalogs)
 is that datafusion might share the `CatalogProvider` on multiple threads 
inside an Arc; thus concurrently accessing our "cached" schemas, etc.? Perhaps 
someone else can clarify this?
   
   > [...] The pattern that DataFusion itself uses to plan SQL queries is to 
walk over the query to [find all schema / table references in an async 
function](https://docs.rs/datafusion/latest/datafusion/execution/context/struct.SessionState.html#method.resolve_table_references),
 performing required remote catalog in parallel, and then plans the query using 
that snapshot.
