CDPD-55243: Spark can read stale data under certain conditions

Using inconsistent cases for database and table names of Iceberg tables in queries can lead to Spark reading stale data. In particular, after any write to the table (append, update, delete) in the same session, an old snapshot may still be read, unless all queries use consistent casing for database and table names.

Use consistent casing for database and table names in all queries.
