URL: https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/9367

   ### Change Logs
   
   This change allows us to support creating a table from a set of initial 
files that were not created by Hudi. This will allow us to bootstrap tables 
from an existing set of files instead of requiring users to rewrite tables with 
filenames in a format that Hudi expects.
   
   This feature only works if metadata table is enabled.
   
   This PR also contains some minor changes around unnecessary copying of 
arrays, use of LinkedList, and over use of Option when dealing with collections 
to reduce memory overhead.
   
   ### Impact
   
   This introduces more complexity when writing data to metadata table and 
requires an extra traversal of the file name to check if the file name contains 
the commit time.
   
   ### Risk level (write none, low medium or high below)
   
   low
   
   ### Documentation Update
   
   _Describe any necessary documentation update if there is any new feature, 
config, or user-facing change_
   
   - _The config description must be updated if new configs are added or the 
default value of the configs are changed_
   - _Any new feature or user-facing change requires updating the Hudi website. 
Please create a Jira ticket, attach the
     ticket number here and follow the 
[instruction](https://hudi.apache.org/contribute/developer-setup#website) to 
make
     changes to the website._
