CDPD-111492: Adding a catch-up mode to EventProcessor
Previous behavior:
Previously, when Hive Metastore (HMS) event processing experienced a large lag or during a catalogd High Availability (HA) failover, the EventProcessor component performed full table reloads for table-level events. This could cause slow recovery times when processing large event backlogs.
New behavior:
Added a configurable catch-up mode by using the hms_event_catchup_threshold_s property for HMS event processing. This mode invalidates tables instead of performing expensive reloads when the event lag exceeds a configurable threshold, which improves recovery from large event backlogs.
