URL: https://github.com/apache/pinot/issues/16687

   In this PR: https://github.com/apache/pinot/pull/15350 we introduced an on 
the fly virtual column which ensures queries can continue running against a 
table, in the presence of schema evolution (eg: adding new columns to the 
schema) which would've failed before. However, for this to work, user still 
needs to invoke the reload operation. The new columns can then be queried 
successfully even though reload hasn't finished.
   
   There are several scenarios where we don't want to automatically reload a 
Pinot table (especially for large tables which might cause significant overhead 
on the server). What would be ideal is to have a new lightweight API (eg: 
schema refresh) which will ensure all the servers can get the latest schema 
(post schema evolution) without having to do a reload operation.  CC
