Description
The Unity Python client constructs Columninfo with ColumnInfo(**col)]
Databricks, and probably Unity OSS, may return extra fields such as column_masks, which causes describe_table to fail with unexpected keyword argument.
Error message
TypeError: ColumnInfo.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'column_masks'
