Description

Snowflake added support for [Apache Iceberg](https://www.snowflake.com/blog/iceberg-tables-powering-open-standards-with-snowflake-innovations/).

There seem to be two ways on how this will be implemented:
- external table with table_format specification (similar to #138), this will be an easy fix
- fully supported iceberg tables with full DML support, expected syntax: "create or replace iceberg table my_iceberg_table"

While this feature is still in private preview, I'd like to add it to the backlog here already.
