High version is not compatible with CatBoost

[jackpgao]

• With the following config, we can use a trained catboost model to predict data.

cat catboost/models/trips_price_model.xml
<models>
    <model>
        <!-- Model type. Now catboost only. -->
        <type>catboost</type>
        <!-- Model name. -->
        <name>trip_price</name>
        <!-- Path to trained model. -->
        <path>/data1/clickhouse/catboost/models/trip_price.bin</path>
        <!-- Update interval. -->
        <lifetime>0</lifetime>
    </model>
</models>

• result

SELECT
    modelEvaluate('trip_price', trip_distance, toYear(pickup_datetime), cab_type) AS prediction,
    total_amount

• but the higher version can not parsed the catboost model config file.

Received exception from server (version 19.19.1):
Code: 36. DB::Exception: Received from 127.0.0.1:9000. DB::Exception: external model 'trip_price' not found.

• and the config in this slide: https://github.com/ClickHouse/clickhouse-presentations/blob/master/meetup10/catboost.pdf is also not right.

Confirm, have the same issue with

Unfortunately, I've missed the slides source, so can't fix mistake there.

So, is this fixed?
I got 'external model not found' error in the version 21.10.2.15.
