Description

This PR addresses the missing writer requirements to enable row tracking in Kernel. Specifically, on top of the existing implementation, it adds the assignment of materialized row tracking column names at table creation.

With this change, users will be able to create a new table with row tracking enabled. Note that enabling/disabling row tracking on existing tables is still blocked, since enabling requires backfilling row IDs/commit versions, which is not supported, and disabling is irreversible.

How was this patch tested?

Existing and new tests in RowTrackingSuite.

Does this PR introduce any user-facing changes?

No.
