I would +1 on having this at catalog API level, and +1 on making this a
catalog-specific implementation for drop table so user can just run `DROP
TABLE` as usual, instead of having an `unregisterTable` API, I don't know how
we can define `unregister` for it to make sense from catalog perspective...
Why can't this just be:
```
public boolean dropTable(TableIdentifier identifier, boolean purge) {
try {
// original logic
} catch (RuntimeException e) {
// do catalog specific removal
}
}
```
Especially I think for Nessie this is just a client call, so it makes it
even easier because you can just do this on server side.
