Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.

As a user from a company that is using Ballista & Deltalake, PR #4095 was all about getting delta tables registered. Upon having it merged though, I immediately realized a Ballista PR for this functionality would be blocked by the fact that deltalake support has not yet been upstreamed into Ballista. Therefore order to make a Ballista PR, we need to create TableFactories for non-deltalake tables, which at this point is only ListingTables.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. Create a ListingTableFactory
  2. Register it with the datafusion context
  3. Plumb the necessary parameters to use it from the CLI

Describe alternatives you've considered

Wait a long time before upstreaming our Ballista changes.
