Description
### Describe the feature
I am currently not able to use my custom Iceberg catalog name, this is because as the documentation states the name `glue_catalog` is hardcoded as the catalog name for Iceberg operations. There should be support for using custom catalog names.
### Describe alternatives you've considered
I don't see any alternatives yet other than changing the source code for dbt-glue on my machine.
### Additional context
[Link to the section in documentation](https://github.com/aws-samples/dbt-glue#iceberg)
### Who will this benefit?
Anyone using the Iceberg connector.
### Are you interested in contributing this feature?
Yes
Contributor guide
Research direction
Search the dbt-glue source for the documented hardcoded `glue_catalog` value, then compare its use with the Iceberg documentation section linked in the issue. Done means Iceberg operations accept a custom catalog name instead of requiring `glue_catalog`, with the usage documented.
