This method helps callers trigger an INSERT event for DML queries without having to deal with
HMS objects. This takes java object types as arguments.
@param dbName Name of the hive database this table belongs to.
@param tblName Name of the hive table this event is for.
@param partitionSpec Map containing key/values for each partition column. Can be null if the event is for a table
@param replace boolean to indicate whether the filelist is replacement of existing files. Treated as additions otherwise
@param newFiles List of file paths affected (added/replaced) by this DML query. Can be null
@throws HiveException if the table or partition does not exist or other internal errors in fetching them
