A clear and concise description of the problem.

I’m unable to alter the column name of Hudi table .
spark.sql("ALTER TABLE customer_db.customer RENAME COLUMN subid TO subidentifier") code is unable to change the column name.

Getting the following error when trying to change the column using above code:
RENAME COLUMN is only supported with v2 tables

      df.write.format("org.apache.hudi")

        .save(basePath+hudiTableName)
        
        spark.sql("ALTER TABLE customer_db.customer RENAME COLUMN subid TO subidentifier")
  commit()
  }

  def commit(): Unit = {
    Job.commit()
  }


  def init(sysArgs: mutable.Map[String, String]): GlueContext = {

    val conf = new SparkConf()

    conf.set("spark.serializer", "org.apache.spark.serializer.KryoSerializer")
    conf.set("spark.sql.legacy.parquet.int96RebaseModeInRead", "CORRECTED")
    conf.set("spark.sql.legacy.parquet.int96RebaseModeInWrite", "CORRECTED")
    conf.set("spark.sql.legacy.parquet.datetimeRebaseModeInRead", "CORRECTED")
    conf.set("spark.sql.legacy.parquet.datetimeRebaseModeInWrite", "CORRECTED")
    conf.set("spark.sql.avro.datetimeRebaseModeInRead", "CORRECTED")
    val sparkContext = new SparkContext(conf)
    glueContext = new GlueContext(sparkContext)
    Job.init(sysArgs("JOB_NAME"), glueContext, sysArgs.asJava)
    glueContext

  }
}

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. I’m using AWS glue job to run the above job.
2. In Dependent JARs path
   hudi-spark3-bundle_2.12-0.12.1
   calcite-core-1.16.0
   libfb303-0.9.3
3. Run the above code.

Expected behavior

spark.sql("ALTER TABLE customer_db.customer RENAME COLUMN subid TO subidentifier") should be able to rename a column name. Could you suggest any other way to rename the Hudi column name.
