Description

Extension to #321

When using an api like the one below, the only supported method to write metadata is through the use of the sparkSession which works until a single spark session is performing multiple writes simultaneously. In this case, manipulating the spark session still doesn't provide the ability to pass accurate metadata to the table. Could we find a way to ensure metadata writes are possible at the writer level even when using the following syntax? Thanks

DeltaTable.forPath(target.tableLocation).alias("target")
  .merge(updatesDF, mergeCondition)
  .whenMatched
  .updateAll()
  .whenNotMatched
  .insertAll()
  .execute()

Thank you
