Review Comment:
   If we are avoiding refresh and throwing any exception here, one of the 
followings can be done:
   
   1. Add the same errors to the corresponding tests something similar was 
tried at previous 
[commits](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/commit/477c7d1c24526e2983462c8fdd1f418264441aac#diff-9c8b69f86aec86aea82cd6675c1c24267d9a9d77d7715c2c792934cb954b328bR371).
 
   2. Or Implement the same tests for HiveCatalog with its own error.
   3. Or make all the Catalog consistent with error handling for such cases.
