Issue:
[ADAP-834] [Regression] `adapter.is_replacable()` always evaluates to `False` with dbt-bigquery 1.6
### Is this a new bug in dbt-bigquery?

- [X] I believe this is a new bug in dbt-bigquery
- [X] I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this bug

### Current Behavior

There's a pretty strange behaviour with 1.6 where the `adapter.is_replacable()` method seems to always evaluate to `False` in 1.6, even if the partition configuration of a model has not been changed. This could cause unintended side-effects - like dropping the previous table even if not required.

https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-bigquery/blob/eb58c7db58d389695f6f2dad8b4f4c8f5f4b5db3/dbt/include/bigquery/macros/materializations/table.sql#L27-L30

### Expected Behavior

We should keep to the behaviour prior to 1.6.

### Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a random table in BQ:

```sql
create or replace table sources.raw as (
  select cast(1 as int64) as id, parse_date('%Y-%m-%d', '1970-01-01') as updated_at, parse_date('%Y-%m-%d', '1970-01-01') as updated_at_utc
);
```

2. Use that in our dbt project/model:

```yaml
# dbt_project.yml
name: my_dbt_project
profile: bigquery
config-version: 2
version: 1.0

models:
  my_dbt_project:
    +materialized: table
```

```sql
-- models/foo.sql
{{
  config(
    partition_by={
      "field": "updated_at",
      "data_type": "date",
    }
  )
}}

select id, updated_at, updated_at_utc from sources.raw
```

3. Run model `foo` a few times:

```sh
$ dbt --debug run -s foo | grep 'Hard refreshing'
03:25:04  Hard refreshing `cse-sandbox-319708`.`dbt_jyeo`.`foo` because it is not replaceable

$ dbt --debug run -s foo | grep 'Hard refreshing'
03:26:32  Hard refreshing `cse-sandbox-319708`.`dbt_jyeo`.`foo` because it is not replaceable

$ dbt --debug run -s foo | grep 'Hard refreshing'
03:27:53  Hard refreshing `cse-sandbox-319708`.`dbt_jyeo`.`foo` because it is not replaceable
```

Attached a full debug log for one of the above invocations - but nothing of interest really.

If you downgrade to dbt-bigquery 1.5.latest (`dbt==1.5.4, dbt-bigquery==1.5.5`) - you will not see such log lines.

### Environment

```markdown
- OS: macOS
- Python: Python 3.9.13
- dbt-core: 1.6.0
- dbt-bigquery: 1.6.1
```


### Additional Context

To confirm `is_replacable` is evaluating incorrectly with 1.6, I used a custom materialization next:

```jinja
{%- materialization m8n, default -%}

  {%- set identifier = model['alias'] -%}
  {%- set old_relation = adapter.get_relation(database=database, schema=schema, identifier=identifier) -%}
  {%- set target_relation = api.Relation.create(database=database, schema=schema, identifier=identifier, type='table') -%}
  
  {%- set raw_partition_by = config.get('partition_by', none) -%}
  {%- set partition_by = adapter.parse_partition_by(raw_partition_by) -%}
  {%- set cluster_by = config.get('cluster_by', none) -%}

  {%- do log('>>>>> is_replacable evaluated to: ' ~ adapter.is_replaceable(old_relation, partition_by, cluster_by), True) -%}

  {% call statement('main') -%}
    {{ create_table_as(False, target_relation, compiled_code, 'sql') }}
  {%- endcall %}

  {{ return({'relations': [target_relation]}) }}

{%- endmaterialization -%}
```

Then modify `foo.sql` to make use of it:

```sql
-- models/foo.sql
{{
  config(
    materialized = 'm8n',
    partition_by={
      "field": "updated_at",
      "data_type": "date",
    }
  )
}}

select id, updated_at, updated_at_utc from sources.raw
```
