I tested using `"unknown"` in `HiveSchemaUtil.convertToTypeString` for VARIANT and HMS rejects it with `InvalidObjectException(message:Invalid column type: unknown)` when committing the table via `HiveTableOperations.doCommit`. This means the snapshot procedure (and any table creation through a Hive catalog) fails for tables with Variant columns when using `"unknown"`. I'm working on a fix for #14123 (snapshot procedure for Variant tables) and will skip the Hive catalog parameterization for the Variant snapshot tests until Hive 4.2 support lands. Wanted to flag this here since it affects the approach chosen in this PR. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
