Rest Catalog: table_exist does not succeed on 204 response code

[c-thiel]

Apache Iceberg version

main (development)

Please describe the bug 🐞

Currently table_exists only returns true on 200:

iceberg-python/pyiceberg/catalog/rest.py

Line 793 in 20b7b53

return response.status_code == 200

According to the spec, it should return true on 204 (and probably 200 as well):

@c-thiel Great catch! I agree, let's accept both 200 and 204. Are you interested in fixing this?

Sure - PR is coming. I'll have some more tricky great catches tomorrow ;)
