### What would you like to be improved?

As user-defined type (UDT) API is public since Spark 3.2.0, kyuubi should support udt schema converter.

Add udt to SchemaHelper.

Research direction

Locate SchemaHelper and read how it currently converts Spark schemas, then review the Spark 3.2 UserDefinedType API and the SPARK-7768 reference. Done means SchemaHelper supports UDT schemas on Spark 3.2 and above, with the relevant behavior covered by the project's existing tests.
